They're trying to imitate Linux once again.

No, it isn't. The fact that you don't get it (again) is a joke and it's
on you.
Sorry pal, but the joke is really on you seeing as how MS is the market
leader and linux distros have been playing catchup since their inception
trying anything to gain market share.
It's not working is it.
Grow up and live with the market facts.
I know that must really hurt but then it's awful truth.

Don't you EVER pull your head out of your butt and get some fresh air?
Microsoft has what's called a captive customer base meaning the vast
majority of customers remain not out of loyalty or choice, rather
because they don't wish to invest in replacement software that runs on
another platform. IF another company develops an OS that runs Windows
software as well as Windows does Microsoft will be in serious trouble
overnight since a substantial number of Microsoft customers don't want
to be Microsoft customers and would jump ship in a heartbeat. Last
week's disaster with marking valid copies of Vista as counterfeit was
just the latest misstep in a long history of Microsoft pissing off
their customers. Sooner or later the bubble is going to burst. When
that day happens we'll see idiots like you screaming your lungs out it
isn't fair I suppose.
 
Windows Defender updates have always come at sporadic intervals, as needed.

It was a bit odd seeing the Daylight Savings Time update this Tuesday -
hardly something critical that it should come out of cycle. And why hadn't
this been fixed earlier, it's not like someone just made some changes again.

Somehow I find it hard to believe that a guy with a self proclaimed IQ of
170 continually misuses the word "then." I can only conclude, then,
ROTFLMAO, that your IQ claim is somewhat exaggerated. Probably by about
50-60 points. (That would still put you in the "bright" section of IQ's, so
don't start huffin' and puffin' that I'm dissin' your IQ by saying that.)
170? Uh, no?

It's still a copy of a Linux feature. MS may be the market share now and
Bush may be the president but as the old saying goes, the only constant
in life is change.

I realize that there are MS fanboys like you that will be loyal to the
end and you are not the target of my posts. I also realize that MOST
people don't know about the wonderful alternatives.

You keep lying and calling people losers and drunks and I'll keep
promoting alternatives to the "market leader". Deal?

More likely he'll keep his head where the sun don't shine and deny it.
In fact, he already is because the Linux boom is just starting and, as
you can see, he can't see it.

And if a pig had wings...

Unless MS does something unprecedented in the history of business, they will
control the computing arena forever. MS has 80,000 employees, revenues of
$51 billion, and a profit of $14 billion (27% of revenue). The company has
more CASH in the bank than the annual budget of California!

Consider the mainframe market. Stodgy IBM is still the leader. Competitors
have come and gone over the years: Xerox, CDC, Remington/Sperry, GE,
Honeywell, Univac, Burroughs, Telex, Calcomp, and lesser lights have tried
and failed. Sometimes miserably. CDC (together with the DOJ) sued IBM. The
case took THIRTEEN years to resolve (IBM had more lawyers on the case than
the DOJ had in the entire anti-trust division).

There is no evidence that the MS "bubble" will burst. It is true that "all
things pass away," and I suppose Microsoft will disappear someday, but to
count on MS's demise anytime in the next century is more hope than reason.

You're delusional!
Pity.
