      Yeah, so we need to apply yet another patch to all these 500 Wintel boxes, again. Smashin'!

      remarkably easy with Microsoft SMS. you tell it to patch, and it goes out and patches all the clients.

        That's what we do.

        But we patch up anyway. It's the policy.

          Instead of trying to make their software more secure, they capitalise on their own flaws to sell you more stuff.

            my update may have been large because I haven't updated in ages.

            Maybe I checked the auto-update to only warn me on very important updates. I don't like to be bothered

                Just like the recompile I had to do to patch OpenSSH

                      maybe the people who constantly ***** about windows being unstable don't maintain their systems very well?

                      i run winupdate at least once a week... and have it defrag, run an av scan, and run system scans automatically at least once a week... and windows hasn't crashed on me in ages, even with 24hr uptimes...

                        Hey, for me installing software equals compiling... it's not like it's that strange .

                            Asher is probably taking a luxurious week in Mingapulco.

                              Um... what about it? It's not very negative toward Linux IMO... only realistic.

                                oh, it doesn't put linux down too far, really. but he'd like it because i suppose it'd provide him ammo against people he thinks are misguided (anybody who isn't a windows-lover).
