"Originally, I had never intended to write a follow-up to 'Why First Generation Apple Products Suck'. But after receiving exceptional feedback on my thoughts, I think I need to make few things clear. Many of you thought I was unfairly singling out Apple even though defective first generation products are a common occurrence across the technology sector software or hardware. Just to be clear, let's not mesh software and hardware together. Neither I nor anyone else should ever expect software to be perfect. On the opposite end, with hardware, it is possible to perfect the craft of developing tangible products, such as the iPod music player."

Only humour is it's funny you should ask. A proper design would be the antomym of a horrible or poor design.
ie; If I do the design properly it should have no defects and function properly.
The design stage is also the cheapest point possible to eliminate said defects.

Proper designs do not have defects, the reason there is a design stage is to eliminate defects.
The first part of that statement is silly. Can you name a single "proper design"? Or am I dense and missed the humor?
