I was reading an article about buggy software in InfoWeek the other
day which stated that even an experienced programer introduced one
defect in every ten lines of code.  It went on to say that if 99% were
caught in testing that would still be 1000 errors in a million line
app.

I'm just hobbyist programmer but 1 in 10 seems awfully high to me. 
What do you real programmers think?

Regards,  Jim
