I used to work with XP addicts and must to say that XP is not a good
technique for retail and custom software development. We always had to fix a
lot of bugs after those guys. They wrote fast and a lot but usually their
code quality and reliability is poor. It's not acceptable for serious
software.

IMO, the only way to use XP technique is the rapid prototyping, demos and
mockups development. In this case the quality is not a critical factor while
the speed is important.
