I'm sure we'll all be safe. Hopefully our English versions of Vista won't recognise the accent's of those trying to exploit the hole.

I wouldn't be surprised if it happens. Unpatched Vista copies have already gone on sale... I've also learned that Microsoft is working on Windows Vista Service Pack 1 already. Ouch

Microsoft have been working on service pack 1 for Vista since early last year, many businesses and academic institutes have already said they will wait till the SP1 release before switching
Handyman man?

Since last year? Why the release then... without whatever is gonna be on SP1? what about the people that have already purchased their copies of Vista? They have to live with it till SP1 comes out, right?

so basically its just a marketing oriented service pack released to motivate customers for upgrading rather than really fix security issues..its pathetic that a ISV has to work on SP even before releasing final product. It just highlight all the security holes MS will be packing in vista under the pretence of user friendliness which later becomes sources of all your viruses and annoyance.

When will MS learn enough to get the OS right by the release time instead making dire attempts to prefect it in 3 years and 3 service packs later.

We would never see the softwre if we waited for it to be perfect. How many times has WWF done an upgrade becase of a security hole? Not having a go at WWF but it is realisitc and everybody says WWF is one of the most secure forums around as well.

I don't believe it is realistic for a software company to release 'perfect software' as a version 1 release.

I think you would find it hard if not inpossible to find a S/W company that released perfect S/W as their initial release.

Fiji (Vista SP1) has been in development for quite some time, mainly to get the stuff to the customer that was not ready for launch. What's the big deal? Phat is absolutely right, we would be in the 24th if we wated for a perfect OS.

I gave Vista a go at the weekend as Microsoft have sent me the Business Edition and I've got to say I hated it.

It looks great for the home user, better looking, more emphasis on media, and simpler to use with all the advanced features well and truly hidden away.

However for a development and working platform this sucked. You can't find anything and everything works slower because it has smooth animation to it all.

The other problem I found is that on the machine I used for testing all the hardware was recognised and worked with Vista except the keyboard, and guess who makes the keyboard? Microsoft!! who are not going to make any Vista compatible drivers for it.

 I have found this every time MS have released a new operating system I have to scrap any Microsoft hardware to the bin as they seem to be the only company that don't make new drivers available for their own new OS.

I for one will be avoiding Vista for as long as I possibly can.
