Instead of flaming, why not try to educate us on what.Net is and how it's better?

This is using Windows XP btw...
So I'm not loosing my mind. Here I am running WU on a Win98 machine and trying to figure out what I'm missing that the rest of the world can see. Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm running Windows Update right now, and all I see is an option that let's me install now. How can I just download the update packages?
Not really....the problem was that Napster software recorded who the users were and what they were sharing. This is like aiding a criminal. New P2P software doesn't maintain that database, thus it's difficult to prove anyone has knowledge or even stop the activity.
The software can be written in C, C++, C#, java, assembly...
Code security has nothing to do with the languages but the design and how much care is taken in coding. Java has a security manager, but in the past a number of exploits have been created that bypass the security manager and take control of the system.
It is possible for C++ applications to be secure. OpenBSD is one great example. Instead of worrying about the language, more developers should worry about methodology and QA processes.

without the automatic install step. With Windows Update, I must download and install at the same time. The orginal poster is looking for auto downloads but a manual install.
Scripts are cool. I used to work with a build manager that captured all of the output from our C++ applications into text files. He then wrote small shell scripts to print the output and pause for some random time every so often. It really looked like the actual build.
I was using HotSync at the time, but I thought that iSync was just a glorified plug-in for HotSync? So does iSync prevent HotSync from running nuts with the duplicate entries?
According to Palm, this is not recommended. I used to transfer data via my m500 and found a lot of duplicate entries. I don't know if a computer ID is a part of the record, but it didn't work for me.
Or as a previous poster said, ask management if they want to guide the company according to their business plan or according to the plan of their OS provider.
And for some, this is the kind of guidance that they are looking for.
I was talking with our computer techs at work about this situation and he told me that since my battery is a year old, that it's normal (for all laptops) that they need to be replaced. If the battery is around a year, I don't see how you can blame the 10.2.4 update.
What's your point? If I give the code away, it's instantly a better program or system?
Second, please make sure you keep things straight. Open source doesn't mean free code distribution. I could sell the program and also include the code for that one sale. The linux kernel is licensed on a free source basis. Everyone can get the code without paying. I'd suggest picking up documents by RMS so you can clarify the different.
Never said they innovated anything, but the whole idea of Windows was to be a user responsive operating system. Thus they came up with the whole idea of floating priorities and boosts to foreground applications. In this case, they did come up with the concept before the OS community got there.
I don't like the idea of my foreground app getting a boost. It leads to more complex code that, in turn, can lead to support problems and bugs.
but I would like to see a sequel to "Killer Klowns from Outer Space"
Please god, say it ain't so. The first one was amusing for the first 20 minutes when the whole concept was introduced. By the middle of the movie, I had to resort to the bottle of 151. Who know what would be needed for the sequel.
How does the export work? I've been thinking about ditching PowerPoint but I don't want to export for PPT only to find out I need more tweaking to make it look decent again.
Were the crashes just within the application or a kernel panic? I've been hearing that Keynote is having some serious problems as well. Here's hoping to 10.2.4 taking care of some of them...
This is what I've found with our new SQL Server 2000 box. It's currently running on a single 850 PIII, but we've added the 2GB (I believe) of RAM to the box and spent the money on the disk controllers. Even with our simulated load of 200 clients, we only see CPU utilization spikes every so often.

The problem was never the software used.

Excatly. I'm glad someone sees this point.

That is very cool....do you know of any tools for Windows?
Scripts are cool. I used to work with a build manager that captured all of the output from our C++ applications into text files. He then wrote small shell scripts to print the output and pause for some random time every so often. It really looked like the actual build.
He quit before managers ever caught on.
Or so you think....chicks dig my Apple II

You mean Linux isn't the answer to everything? Am I reading /.?

Uh...check out Windows 2000 scheduling algos. If anything, Linux is becoming the next MS

code it up and submit a patch

What's the point of that? To see what kind of new cases we can slap PC parts into. Frankly, I'm a little tired of this being a hot news item.
That's why APC and TrippLite are some of the largest investors in this technology :)

Well, the first question Microsoft is going to ask is How much money you got? Then they tell you what kind of box you need to run SQL Server.
