A nightmare.

I upgraded to SP1 practically as soon as SP1 has been available.

I saw somewhere that with it Vista should be 10% faster. Well to me with SP1 Vista has been 10% of the speed it was before. No kidding!

Just to be sure I wasn't imagining things I uninstalled it. Now it's back to what I've been used to with Vista. Meaning I can live with it.

There was definitely something very wrong with SP1. I just hope that MS realizes it and will act fast about that. The worst it that I keep reading that june is the official date where XP won't be
available no more. To me that does'nt make sense. But then again logic tells me that if MS posponed the retirement of XP to june they can change their minds again.

The way I see things we're in big trouble. It tells me that we'll probably never have again a very trustable OS. Vista SP3 will be rock-solid but we probably won't be able to enjoy it for long because it's days will be counted because "OH-WOW! (Operating system Hey! - We Own the World" will have been on the market for six months.

Not sure if it's still the case but apparently MS makes its money with their OSs and Office.

If it's still true there will be new versions even if these products don't really need new things.

I know the UT is mainly a developer's place but who over here thinks that there's something missing in office 2007? What will they think of adding in it for the next release?

And to me there's too many things in their OSs. Here's my definition of an OS. "A piece of software that eases the interaction between human and computer". Nothing more nothing less.

Where does solitaire fit in that definition? From day one the games should have been a separate download. There are probably other things that should have been available as separate downloads.

By the way what is the release date of Vista SP2? <g>
