Agree 100% about the Apple philosophy, great comment.

I understand about pressures. However, I've worked at a big company, small, and now at a startup, and none of them seem to have time to focus on quality. Maybe I've just been unlucky, and that the Apples of this world are a very rare breed. It could also be argued that it's more important for a startup to focus on quality, especially if entering a crowded market?

Thanks for the advice, you're right it's all about balance. It's not all bad, there are some people at my company who love spending time on user experience, but at the moment they just don't fight for the cause. Hopefully when things get a big less hectic (if that ever happens) there will be time for improvement in this area.
