Comments on: Typo leads to Vista SP1 confusion

Microsoft says error in e-mail led some to incorrectly conclude that Vista Service Pack 1 beta is available.

Haven't they...

...heard of reading an email before sending it out?

[rcrusoe]

It's Microsoft

They are always releasing stuff before it is ready.

Emails, Press Releases, Vista.

Not ONLY...

Not ONLY does Microsoft NOT know how to release patches... they DON'T EVEN KNOW how to send out understandable E-mails.

Its good to see you care about us Microsoft....

so when do we get the windows XP service pack. About 140 plus updates on a fresh install of XP. Now thats annoying. Especially since it is a better operating system then Vista!

Just to let you know, I was working on my Vista computer again this weekend and I mut tell you that the file management system sucks! Also I created a data DVD that took forever to load up on Vista and locked up all my system resources. This machine has dual Nvida Graphics cards and 2 Gigs of memory. What I used to do in five minutes on my XP machine takes me a whole lot longer on my Vista machine. So I want to ask... Is Windows 7 going to be any better or should I join all the others who are running to Macintosh and Linux?

Like you really hear me... after all you probably have more lofty things to think about... like how you are going to spend my hard earned money that I had to pay out for your !@#$%^&* software!

Purposeful Typo?

Microsoft will do just about anything to gain attention. Why not a gimic advertisement with a purposeful typo?

The nuvi 200 is built with a high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver for extreme accuracy, as well as an SD card slot for storing your media and additional navigation tools, and a USB interface for loading data. http://www.highspeedsat.com/nuvi200.htm All this is wrapped up in a package that measures 3.8 x 2.8 x .8 inches (W x H x D) and weighs just 5.2 ounces. The nuvi 200's 3.5-inch (diagonal) display is touchscreen-enabled, making it a cinch to control the device with your fingertips. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to five hours of battery life depending on use.

Aaarrgh!!

OK, I bought it last week and 2 things dont work with it, my GPRS/3g card (dreaded Code 12) and my sound card (X-Fi). I hope the service pack fixes the problems with them both but I am sticking with XP until I can get them to work. I have disabled almost everything else to try to get it to work but to no avail. Ho hum...

People, people, people!

You have been reading since this POS was released that there have
been issues. You have to struggle to Google a review that has a
nice thing to say about Vista.

Why do you insist on going out and buying it?!?
