When the design is good enough?

It is really hard to say when you stop telling your designer "keep working on it", be it user interface, or functionality. After a few iterations you may start asking yourself -- am I just unreasonably
annoying? Is this good enough?

I found the answer from Apple's Steve Jobs:

"We made the buttons on the screen look so good you'll want to lick them."

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
