Vista, the next coming of "PERFECTION", YA RIGHT. I am glad to see the ship dates slide. The critics of MS will scream at the top of their lungs if there is a problem with Vista after it ships. If it takes MS two more years to get it right, so be it. This should send a message to all developers that shipping a 99% product is more important than shipping on time. Over the past 10 years or so, we have fallen into a ship it and fix it latter mentality vs. a do it right this first time, As a user, I would like the use the product, not debug it.

Those were certainly failed projects, but were never announced as actual products with shipping dates. Longhorn/Vista has been pushed by Microsoft sales for some time now, and has had several announced delivery dates come and go. That's the difference between R&D development and vaporware. -- Ed Leafe -- http://leafe.com -- http://dabodev.com [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
