    Yeah.. I agree.

    Microsoft releases a new CLI for Windows (Powershell 1.0 available as of yesterday. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_PowerShell for more info) yet they've rejected that story at least twice and post trolls like this instead.

    Assuming Vista will allow an application to download things before the software is installed.
    Of course, if it does that then security is shot. So, why do we need vista?

    And you're betting the average Windows user even knows what a patch is? Let alone how to find it and apply it?

    You've a lot more faith than I, my friend.

    If it bothers you so much, why not try an alternative?

    Fedora Core
    Ubuntu
    Debian
    SUSE
    Mandriva
    Slackware
    Gentoo

    or any of these?

    Or Mac, or BSD, or even Solaris? There's no shortage of options
