Why this?
There is so much to be disappointed in Microsoft about that is legitament, I have to wonder why we are talking about this. I am niether an NBMer or an ABMer, but somewhere in the middle. I have to admit that there are days it seems that Microsoft's only goal is to push me to Mac or Linux, but here we have a situation where a flaw was found in one of the very basic building blocks of Windows and we have poeple complaining that the fix, while perfectly fine, did not come fast enough? What trash!

The ABMers and NBMers in the industry are starting to look like Democrats and Republicans. The only way to tell which is which is to listen to who they insult. I would like to them all silenced (You Mac and BSD zelots don't help anything either). There are a number of us that use multiple tools that can debate issues and compare utility in certain situations without all of the cheap shots. We can even agree to disagree. The rest of you should take notes.
