If the updates provided something usefull, then I am all for updates
like security updates. But who needs 3d paint, virtual reality, and
some of the other worthless "improvements"

I wouldn't mind them breaking stuff, if I thought the
feedback to their QA organization could result in
real change and improvement.

But it seems they're hell-bent on maintaining a
constant level of brokenness. It boggles the mind
why you would do that.

They did delay RTM, because of a "drop-dead" issue
in 17134 and had to fix it as 17134_1 before release.
So at least they know what a drop-dead issue is. That
seems to be the only level of defect they care about
("brickage").

And what they test in the Insider Edition, is not the
same thing as is put in RTM. Microsoft loses the benefit
of Insider testing, by doing that and forking streams
at some point before release. And putting untested
junk in there (new drivers).

Having been in the business for a short while, and
seeing what care goes into QA, I have to award Microsoft
an "F", just from not learning from their mistakes. We
always tried to do "lessons learned" from the usual
stupid stuff that happens, at our place. Some of the
last stuff we did was really good as a result.

As a classic example, our staff wrote bundled backup software.
They pretended it was production ready, and dog-fooded it
(used the backup software to "protect" the departmental
server). When the server went down a month later, the
restore software didn't work (Picard facepalm). When queried,
the responsible manager said "yeah, we didn't test that,
too hard" or words to that effect. As you can imagine,
in the "lessons learned", that example would be included
as a cautionary tale for any high-flying developers who
think "their **** doesn't stink" :-) We never had a repeat
performance like that. Imagine if that software had
gone to a customer, and their server went down at 2PM,
and a fix had to be rushed out. Fortunately, it was
only our own productivity that was affected.

M$ was sued by God, who insisted on being the only perfect thing in
existence. One of the conditions of the lawsuit was that they alter
Windows to prove it's not perfect :-)

I spent about 5 hours trying to get networking going on my 4 puters
with some help. Got it working "on & off" on three. The Dell laptop =
no freaking way. Three would work once and then give a different error
the next time and another error.

Back to flash sticks !


that's what ****ed me off too. They broke my network yet again. I don't
care that homegroups are gone. I don't use that anyway but they again broke
the ability to see all the computers on the network.

Mine, too. It sees and is seen by all Windows 7, XP, and Linux
computers on my network.

You have to set the two Function Discovery Services to Auto-delayed


I stopped and restarted those functions and that allowed the computers to
see one another again but not sure if that will stick on a reboot. I'll try
what you did if I have it happen again.
