Last week I was working on a clients PC and this is what happened when I rebooted the computer (in this instance Windows 7).

I believe this image speaks louder than any words ever could.

How can any company, little alone one like Microsoft, be releasing software that requires 135 updates?  Definitely something seriously wrong with this picture.

Some will argue this demonstrates Microsoft’s commitment to improving the user experience.  I put forth that this clearly illustrates their commitment to profit by releasing software that clearly is not ready for the mass market.

I’d also like to know how Microsoft expects users without high-speed internet connection to be able to download and install these updates.  This is simply unrealistic!  This puts them at even greater risk of being hacked, infected by viruses, malware, … and simply being exploited.

 

You be the judge!

PS:  Another reboot installed even more updates?!
