Having suffered under the Windows burden for more years than I truly care to remember, the pattern becomes recognizable that once the patches (numerous, bothersome, pick your own descriptor) have been applied over the course of years and the platform is quasi-stable, MS brings out a new platform, with great appearance, lacking the "security" developed forht eold one over the course of years. Do these new OS upgrades really get released. do they escape, or do they just get dribbled on the floor and seep out the door?
