At least I don't have to redownload so many updates when I reinstall my OS in a few months time

Google is your friend... more so when the best result is a CNN story from 1999 about Windows 2000 (which it seems I cannot post due to being rather new here) which says in part:

Quote:

"It is our escrow build," Thompson said. "There will be no more changes in the code." An escrow build, according to Microsoft sources, means code development is ceased as developers and beta testers hunt for recall class bugs. The escrow code is considered the release to manufacturing code.

Kapeesh?

Ahh.. Thanks. We did Google, no idea why we didn't find that.

Could be that Windows Vista service pack 2 could very well benefit from the Microsoft communitys' ability to cull some revelations from the host of Windows 7 beta testers finds since that new operating system is supposed to be based primarily on Windows Vista anyway.

I'll just bet that they drag their feet to see what revelations present themselves, to see just what might be supprisingly found-out in the interim, while they apprise themselves of all the bugs they find that they did not realize they had inherited from the Windows 6 family - into the Windows 7 realm.

By dragging their feet, they may well get some insight into some bugs that they didn't even know existed in Vista, until they allowed people to try and break the new Windows 7 operating system - thereby exposing some of the legacy flaws which would've been inherent from the base of Windows 6 (Vista) and maybe even back as far as Windows XP or 2000.

this article is getting very confusing.

It needs a re-arrangement. maybe you should just del the old updates?
