twitter's Journal: Vista SP1 banned by Penn State

Universities liberal enough to accept the deeply flawed and mostly rejected Vista OS are recommending faculty and students stay away from SP1.

University of Pennsylvania tech staffers are advising faculty and students not to upgrade their computers to the new service pack for Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)'s Windows Vista operating system.

The school's Information Systems & Computing department said it will support Vista SP1 on new systems where

it's preinstalled, but added that it "strongly recommends that all other users adopt a 'wait and see' attitude," according to a newly published department bulletin.

M$ hopped SP1 would turn the tide and encourage sales of Vista but SP1 looks like more of the same, another black eye for an OS no one loves. More here.
