'60,000,000 Broken Copies of Vista!'

60,000,000 Broken Copies of Vista!

On the heals of Microsoft's annoucement of world domination via 60 million copies of Windows Vista, the CD New Blog reports: Here's the list of fixes in those new Vista fix packs

It is certain for ongoing domination in the operating system area, Microsoft needs to get a product on the market that doesn't feed off of updates.

"Installing this update will improve the performance and responsiveness for some scenarios and improves reliability of Windows Vista in a variety of scenarios." So it was a dog to begin with and you'll have to update away to get anything usable!

The likely result of all the updates and patches is that in a couple years if you system crashes you'll spend weeks downloading them all after you reload Vista.

I believe if you look at the hardware and operating system developments since the advent of CP/M you'll find that every year the hardware is faster, more capable and more relible.

In comparison, Windows seems to take a step back with every advancement. If it instead progressed as the hardware has, you could run Vista on an 8080 system with 16k of ram and 256k floppy disk!
