Yep, 07 looks like a good year for repair techs.

Almost all of them blew off the release notes--who reads 'em--who backs
up--who uses Windows Help among the general population--very few--actually
to date about 30% of Windows users back up--may not be the population on
this group which is skewed towards enthusiasts and IT types who are
enthusiasts but it's true of the general population.

I looked at the posts on that group.


They slapped that puppy onto a fully loaded sins of their past, rarely
properly cleaned or defragged, cpu sucking because they didn't
discriminately close services they don't need runinng, and didn't close
processes they don't need running. They made the bead their IE is freezing
in John.

Hell yes it's the real world. Precisely my point. But nothing I mentioned
was the stuff og Geektopia--the fact they don't do them is the stuff of
extreme laziness in Gen Y and Z.

Holy cow! There are a bunch of people on the
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general newsgroup having problems with
IE7. There's got to be at least 200 posts about problems with IE7 since
4:30 PM this evening.
 
This happened for IE3, IE4, IE5, IE6 and now IE7.
This will happen for Vista, as it did for Windows 95, 98, Me, and XP.

Give it up. There are hundreds of millions of installs of Windows out there,
you never hear about the hundreds of millions installing that DON'T have
issues, but the ones that do seem to become a calling card for people like
yourself who offer nothing back to the community other than bitter
commentary.

Yet more complaining from John Jay Smith, but no comments on WHAT is "really
stupid"... or why it is.

The vast majority of people I know that have migrated or tried IE 7 versus
IE6 don't want to go back to IE 6. They like the interface a lot more, they
think it's faster, and of course, its more secure.

Look, by now I think we all understand you don't like Vista or IE 7. So why
are you bothering to post?

Amen, brother.

I think that's a chapter in Julia Roberts autobiography about when she was
married to Lyle Lovett...

IE7 is not ready for release. Period. Check out
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general if you need proof.

It didn't happen like that. IE7 is special.

BS! If you read the installation instructions -- and the millions you
are referring to don't -- you will see it says to totally uninstall Zone
Alarm, for example, that practically no one who has ZA will do. It says
to disable your anti virus, which practically no one will do. It says to
reboot twice before opening IE7, which practically no one will do.

Considering that you don't know millions of people not having issues,
you are simply making it up as you go along.

Where have those "people" been during the beta cycle?
 
well not everyone does beta testing especially on a core application like
IE, because bugs will make other programs malfunction.. its not as if its a
separate application...

that's why most people were avoiding it and waiting until the final,
thinking "at last".

When they install it they are in for a bad surprise...
bugs and stupid design...

I hope the consider changing their idea of making ie7 part of autoupdate on
november....

because if that happens tha whole world will be screaming.. lots of people
dont know how to change things or fix things, or
even what a newsgroup is
 
dunno... but Lyle definitely looks like a dude who might bite the heads
off'n chickens... and enjoy it too...
