Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

I'd like to point out some excellent programming. Take a look at the time in both screenshots and note that I selected "Remind me in 4 hours" and clicked "Postpone":

First:
excellent-programming-windows-vista-update-update1.jpg

and then again, four hours later?

Re: Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

Gotta love those high-quality developers in Redmond. And they wonder why I won't use their email program... or browser... and try to avoid their entire office suite.

Re: Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

Thats typical for Microsoft lol.

The biggest downfall of Window$ is updates REQUIRE restarting. Thats why I prefer linux on desktops.

However as of late, I have been a huge fan of server 2008 (especially the core install) because it is becoming a lot more like linux with updates and serving sites. It is also a lot easier to configure initially compared to ubuntu server.

Re: Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

Ouch. Maybe they will release an update to fix their update rebooter? Perhaps the next time you get booted out of COD4 unknowingly it will be the last?

Re: Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

A guy at work had a copy and he told me it looks just like Vista although that doesn't mean a lot as the looks usually change right before release anyway. I do hope they fix a lot of their problems.

Re: Excellent Programming: Windows Vista Update!

But the clock says it's only been 3 minutes since you took both of the screenshots! Nice try!
