Just say, "NO"... Dell isn't going to Vista until Oct. At least internally. Same for Intel, Freescale, Motorola, TI, etc. Is there a trend? -- dillon The pen may be mightier than the sword, but I've never seen a .sig beat a Sig. |

Same for > Intel, Freescale, Motorola, TI, etc. Is there a trend? Probably not any more so than with the new release of any other O/S (especially one from MSFT)... Large corporations want time to test their apps to see what gets broke by the new O/S... Often they rely on 3rd party applications and libraries which might not work under the new O/S... MSFT is not in the business of creating a stable O/S that developers can develop towards and never have to worry about changing their application... MSFT is in the business of making changes just for the sake of changing things so that developers will constantly need to be modifying their apps so that they can work on the O/S version du jour... Of course, this also means that the other software that MSFT sells also needs to be updated... Combine that with the fact that they let their O/S get more bloated with each version and one could argue that they are also in the business of selling hardware... |

For anyone that didn't catch it, OE allows me to read RS and my mail in the same place (so I don't wander out into cyberspace and get lost). As soon as I get back from... TORONTO (Ooohhhhhh Carrrrrlllllllll), We'll have to teach Popeye about newsreaders. I just got the mount for the 20" flatscreen on the dash of the truck for maps. And coming back soon- Buzcutt454!!(@finalprotectivefire.com). I just bought an old 454 Suburban for a dive-mo-beel. |

Actually, OE has come with the default distribution of various flavors of Windows over the years... A better comparison would be between a car and the tires... It comes with one particular brand, it might not be the best, but it works -- and you're free to change it to your personal preference... > Piece of advice: unless your employer requires it, use a different > mail client. OE is acceptable as long as you can learn not to click on everything that gets sent to you... There are better email clients out there and *definitely* better newsgroup readers, but it works well enough... I have quite a few different machines on my home network and it's quite likely that they all have at least one different email or newsgroup client other than OE... Although there are better clients than OE, there are also worse -- Lotus Notes and cc:Mail come to mind... <blech> |
