A business is concerned with profits, not vigilantism.
An ironic example of where this is reversed would be Diablo 2, where Blizzard released a patch only months ago. The ironic part, of course, is the issue with Starcraft 2 and (likely) Diablo 3.
...I have a 100/100 Mbps connection with no limits at a monthly cost of $21/month. That includes up to 1 GB of complementary web hosting (albeit with a crappy url) and some other small goodies. Seeing costs the like of ~$100/month just makes me laugh, really, since us Swedes paid about $25 for 100/100 Mbps connections ten years ago.
Operating systems are UIs; they are not intended to be performance boosters. Their task is to deliver the information that you need in a timely, neat and conclusive manner. As far as I hear, Windows 7 does this better than Vista as well as (at least when it comes to the neat part) XP.
Try thinking of it in terms of a human body: we're all pretty much the same, but with some differences in component performance. It all comes down to how the body is used and maintained.
It's the less slick one, albeit still slick, with more of that white stuff than ever! Get their album now and listen to their latest hit: "Snow Snow Baby"!
Give it up for Vanille Snow!

still isn't included, and none of the add-ons that enable it are updated yet. I knew updating this soon was a bad idea.
