I still can't decide whether I love or loathe Vista; many days, it's a little of each. I do know that I'm anxiously awaiting service pack 1. When an update fails because the updater can't find the program it's supposed to be updating, I wonder what the programmers were thinking. On the day Steve Jobs addressed the faithful at Macworld, Apple rendered an application on my Windows machine unusable and nearly killed my Apple Powerbook. This week's stupid spams include one that claims to come from the IRS.
