Oracle's Linux: Unbreakable? Or Just A Necessary Adjustment?
,----[ Quote ]
| When Oracle's Linux technical support team has a fix, it gives that fix to
| the customer without waiting for Red Hat's uptake or the kernel process
| itself, Ellison said.

| [...]
|
| When Red Hat learns of bugs, it retrofits the fixes into its current and
| older versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. That's one of Red Hat's main
| engineering investments in Linux, Berman said in an interview.

Nothing like Vista bugs though. "Vista" means "alpha" in Spanish.

Windows Vista running with no RAM!
,----[ Quote ]
| But as you can see from the screenshot above, Vista can function with zero
| RAM. I know, it does sound illogical, but then again… And no, it is not an
| example of my Photoshop skills at work, it is a genuine screenshot from
| Vista.

"Mommy, it's broken." 2 weeks with Vista
,----[ Quote ]
| After 5 years of development, Vista still isn't ready for prime time.
| It's like taking a car without an engine and putting a new coat of
| paint on it. Sure it looks pretty, but it still doesn't work. I would
| wait at least 6 months if not a year to invest in Vista. In fact I
| personally will be putting XP on my laptop because Vista crashes too
| much for me to use everyday.
|
| This review doesn't take into account the DRM and anti-piracy
| issues that have been brought up by Vista. Without taking those
| into account I still wouldn't buy Vista.

Programs Cannot Be Uninstalled In Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| Possibly after one of the latest updates in Windows Vista, two strange things
| happened: first, the Uninstall option is no longer available in the Control
| Panel when you right-click on older programs (most likely, those installed
| prior to the update in question, because uninstall works fine for recently
| installed programs — the Uninstall button is also missing on the toolbar at
| the top); second, some programs are no longer shown on the applications list
| in Control Panel (e.g., Yahoo Messenger).

MS update sends PCs 'haywire'

| Users are advised to review knowledge base articles that refer to the
| particular version of .NET and Windows they are running for more information,
| which are listed under the "known issues" section of the bulletin.
|
| The SANS posting, and feedback we're hearing, suggests the problems some
| users are experiencing are more than these knowledge base articles might
| suggest but at least these postings provide a starting point for users before
| they refer outstanding issues they might still be having to Microsoft or
| their support partners.

Thanks To Microsoft No Work Will Be Getting Done This Week
,----[ Quote ]
| Patch Tuesday is coming up and again work will grind to a halt as
| techs spend the next few days deploying what amounts to a huge
| payload of patches for the month of February 2007. This month
| we're looking at five critical updates related to Windows
| security, two relating to Office security and one relating to
| Windows OneCare Live, Microsoft Antigen, Windows Defender and Microsoft
| Forefront; plus a host of other lesser related patches, 21
| one in all.
