Re: After going through a big hassle....



Since no one is "forcing us to upgrade & pay lots of money", perhaps you should try an Apple.

Your comparison is not to valid because of some of the main differences, a few being:
A larger % of users makes it more attractive for malware writers.
Apples exerts far more control on their systems, Microsoft doe not even make systems.

"I don't bother buying it before all flaws are ironed out!"
Then you will never buy Windows vista.
If you apply that standard to other software, you never buy any other software from any manufacturer.
If you apply that to other products outside of computers, you may buy nothing else ever again.

After going through a big hassle with the latest IE7 updates (KB942615), I
have to ventilate my feeling!

My God, what is Windows a hassle!!! Since Win95 you have countless hassles,
patches, servicepacks & updates; why not an OS that works smoothly like Apple
OS's!?? 95% of the world works with Windows, it's time they do their job
properly instead of forcing us to upgrade & pay lots of money each time!!
Vista seems to be even worse!! I don't bother buying it before all flaws are
ironed out!
