What the IT people are waiting for: SP1 lives!

T

Tiberius

Why do they say it lives? Well some MS people circulated rumors that vista
will never have
a package called SP1... rather a stream of updates will exist via windows
update.

but guys.. this is a marketing thing ... many companies are waiting for what
they have in mind as SP1
to see if vista will be less horrid with that..

So they changed the story now and are back on the SP1 scenario. Its only
logical.. give the consumers
what they expect.. and a hope that vista will be better than the monstrosity
it is now!

Naysayer vistaboys may be stupid enough to deny MS ever said that there
would be no SP1
but they distort everything.. so who listens to them anyway?

Are you on drugs or what?
We knew SP1 was coming months ago.
Everybody did.
No one ever said it wasn't. Or maybe you did.
You're starving for attention aren't you?
Get a dog and get a real life, ok.

Sure it was all over the place.. of course I never believed it because I
knew
companies and consumers would demand a SP. Some people in here, yes
vistaboys from this very newsgroup said that there would be no SP1. Their
logic: A SP is only a collection of fixes.. why dont you collect them all
together and make your own. Lol yes this was actually said to me in here
from someone.

I dont really understand the reasons why this no SP rumor was circulated..
perhaps some other people in here can
tell us why. Perhaps they wanted to give the public the feeling that vista
was so good it didnt need a SP so they
wont wait? Thats the only reason that I can imagine MS saying such a thing.

You must have lots of extra time on your hands to just keep posting and
posting. If my wife talked as much as you posted, I would hit her with a
rolled up newspaper, shove her nose in it and throw her outside.

Have you ever considered making sense for a change?

Oh.. I remember you.. you are bill billyanair, Mr Microsoft himself.... :)

I see you are a gentleman! Always here to say something nice....

I would post less if you and frank didnt nag like old witches trying to
fight every frikin thing that I post! Put a sock in it... or in this case
wear socks on your hands so you cant
type ;-)

Bill Yanaire

That isn't true. You would post twice as much if Frand and myself wern't
nagging like old witches when you post, but thanks for the compliment.

Frank... you're such a moron.

I recall months ago the fanboy crowd was pretending that Vista was so
good there would be no need for any service pack. LOL!

Yea right, sure. Microsoft release some OS then didn't need a SP. That
will be the day.

Yeh, be like Frankie Boy. He's never made sense around here. No point in

Why don't you stop spitting your filth in here and get lost. Nobody cares
about you or what you post. You must think you know everything. Once again,
get lost. Nobody likes you or thinks your smart.

Speak for yourself you dimwit. If you won't want to read my postings here
then put me in your killfile or ignore them. Or do you have a god complex
and think you're the moderator of this newsgroup?

Love and Kisses,
Doris

PS. should I add you to my sig also? Except in your case you'd belong to a
different group ... BallmerBumGirlz.

Vista will get an update and it will be called SP1. You just love spreading
rumors. Some MS people circulated rumors that Vista will never have a
package called SP1. Who cares what it is called. It could be called Wild
Turkey and if it updates who gives a Rats Ass?

This is one of the most useless posts you have posted in awhile. What is
wrong? Sphincter problems?

Geeze. Grab your ankles and kiss it good night.

I'm sorry, all i read there was "blah blah blah, i'm a linux whore".

This is a newsgroup for people who want help and give help... Not a rumour
or slander spreading newsgroup... Thats why i'm not ignoring people. I'm
trying to give them a hard time for being an idiot.

If your not going to post anything constructive, then get lost.

And I'm not pro-ms, as I said above, I'm just sick of people posting trash
that doesn't need to be posted.

"My sound card isn't working. Can someone help?" -person in need
"Use linux." -an idiot

Think about it...

Uttt...ohh Julie! Now you've got that cross-dressing linux looser
scumbag from trash dot threating to put you on his shit list!
Actually, it's an honor to be listed by this linux looser cause it means
you're getting under his lizard, uh...penguin skin.
So let me be one of the first to congratulate you on your recent
achievement!

The definition you give to this newsgroup cannot hold. This newsgroup is
carried by newservers that
are not only the msnews.Microsoft ones. It also has .general in its name.
This means that it its not confined to technical matters alone that have to
do with vista, but general discussions about vista. What you say as "help",
has many facets that is clear
you do not comprehend.
You cannot confine even though you would love to, what people want to talk
about, or what their opinions are.
I talk about vista here.. I don't talk about other things.. and since its
vista, I am in context with the nature of this newsgroup. You can send bill
gates and ask him to put you in charge of moderation and tell him that you
would
love to have the power to delete posts you don't like. I am happy to tell
you that he will decline your stupid offer.

anyway.. I don't expect much. I would urge you to avoid all posts that you
do not like and refrain from
adding noise to threads that you care to not contribute something that is at
least interesting.

What you may think as useless and unimportant may be of some interest to
some. For example I posted about
the SP issue that has been discussed before here, and many many people care
about if there is going to be a SP, and when. Why do you say you don't like
it? Because I add my opinion, and you just disagree with it.

I also posted about Virtual machines, something also that will help people
test vista before they buy it, for free.
Having a free virtual machine is good to test software compatibility.
I posted about 32 bit that is dying. This is important for people that may
be thinking about getting a new PC
They should get a 64 bit cpu now and run 32 bit vista if they want to. But
by having 64 bit they retain future capability.
I also posted answers to technical problems of some.

Technical problems come and go... but the evolution of an OS is important
for historical reasons.
I have helped people with technical problems too...

I took the time to answer... although I am not sure if it will do any good.
Bottom line? Avoid all threads you
cannot handle. Find a forum that is moderated and will not allow any
intelligent deep speculation about the
course of vista.
