Comment Grow up! (Score 1) 533
Whilst everyone on here seems to be getting tired at the jokes to M$, I get increasing annoyed by the comments posted by everyone telling the guy to grow up. OK, M$ might be doing something good for once, but can you please leave it off with the lame whines everytime someone makes a joke at M$ because its becoming tiring. You'd almost think the audience of /. was pro-M$.
As for the certificate, it is propaganda since all such certificates are meaningless. Three service packs is also meaningless. Who knows, SP2 could probably have got the certificate. Who cares if it's just propaganda? Stop arguing over pointless things. If someone makes a small comment about M$ products everyone jumps and defends M$. If someone makes a pro-M$ comment everyone jumps and slags off M$! I'd prefer /. readers to comment on the CONTENT of the news, not some comment the poster added.
Lastly, Windows has huge problems. But so does Linux. Every OS has its downfalls, and the skill in the user/admin is knowing where the problems are and how to best deal with them. IMO Windows sys admins need to be a lot more skilled than Linux ones...
