Overall it sucked because they were always 3 days behind us when it came to builds. By the time they reported a bug, it had usually already been fixed on our end.

Thought the spelling thing was pretty funny though.
That reminds me of an beta tester we had for our software. He logged a bug saying "centre" should be spelled "center" and "colour source" should be spelled "color source".
