I am not saying that there is nothing wrong with patching in general and I
certainly understand the frustrations but the MVP's have absolutely nothing
to do with this. I agree that maybe MS needs to update this patch or
something. I understand the need to vent but bagging on MS or MVP's or
anyone else is just so inappropriate that it makes me laugh ;) I am not
saying that the admins are to blame for actually applying these patches. I
guess in general there needs to be a better solution. Until then we all have
to deal with this carp of patching......
