Apple's iTunes 8 has some interesting side effects. It causes a BSOD on Vista: Old news. Corrected version is out. So much for Vista's protected mode computing. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *

The problem, as I understand it, is a driver that Apple supplied. Drivers tend to run at kernel level. It would be nice to isolate drivers, but it's kinda the nature of the beast that a driver brings down the whole OS. AND... AND... the driver gets downloaded for you automatically because MS, I mean Apple has decided you want it. Maybe they could prompt you, Hey...we've got this really cool driver you might want to download. Would you like us to do that? or Hey...we've got this really cool driver you might want to download. There's a good chance it'll make your system vomburp. But it's okay because Apple's becoming equal opportunity. Apparently it's also caused problems for owners of Airport Express routers. Me? I'd rather not have drivers I don't need installed for me. I don't even own an iPod (horrors I know) or an iPhone (yes, it's true!) * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *
