I think you are not very smart to realize that MS continues to develop products. News: Even after Windows 7, MS will be working on the next version. Also, the next version after Windows 7 will have a different name. Now go stick your head up your ass where it belongs because you are too stupid to use Vista. Get with Alias or Ringmaster and they will help your sorry ass to migrate to Ubuntu. Quote

Its just like when MS dumped Windows 2000 when XP came out, and when MS dumped XP when Vista came out. Quote

That OS was a unpopular failure also. Businesses are not going for Vista. MS didn't sell Vista as they thought they would. <span style="color:blue"> > </span> Quote

Guest FromTheRafters Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 They will improve on Vista, there is nothing new about the evolutionary process. The main problem with Vista is that Microsoft previously allowed users too much leeway in the area of security. Mostly homeusers and people who think that they are administrators take offense at LUA and UAC. They need to be kept from running administrator privilege accounts when it is not necessary. Vista put security by default and it requires some tweaking to lessen the security as opposed to previous versions where it was far too easy to accept the less than optimum default settings. After reading in the security groups for a while, I don't see many real problems with Vista being discussed, mostly just alot of whining about having to understand file and folder permissions, UAC prompts, integrity levels, and other basic security mechanisms. Most of the "solutions" involve tearing down or circumventing these mechanisms rather than trying to work with them. It's a shame really that user education is not considered a viable solution anymore. news.microsoft.com" <none@nospam.net> wrote in message news:%23cIo2diOJHA.3496@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...<span style="color:blue"> > MS dumps Vista.

Guest SCSIraidGURU Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Vista did not catch on in the corporate world because much of our software requires the workstation user to have administrator rights and power user access to databases to function.

MS is going to cut XP off and move on, just like it has done in the past. Having a solution run by users that needs Administrator rights to run such a solution is an operational model that is full of secuirty risks to the user and the machine, which was broght about due to XP and previous versions of the NT based O/S(s) inability to run solutions as Limited user without admin rights. Vista and Windows 7 it seems will allow developers to develop solutions that only need Stanadrd user rights to run, and therefore, there should be no need for a user to need admin rights to run a given solution. It's MS's show and the software developers are going to have to dance to it. Quote

That's the only reason really the registry is needed becuase of COM based solutions for the most part. .Net based solutions Windows desktop or otherwise do not need/use the registry -- exe(s) or DLL(s).

She should have strangled you with your own placenta at birth, particular, when the clown that made the original post was bouncing off the walls whining about Vista like some kind of a yapping hyena not knowing what it was or is talking about. It was just complaining and moaning and that seems to be the person's MO. You have fun with yourself and stick it where the Sun doesn't shine on you. Quote
