Beyond Coding

Today I decided to upgrade my Windows 7 build 7000 to the latest build 7057. The system is installed on my Fujitsu P1610 which I use as an e-book reader and ultra-portable.

I ran the DVD inside Windows, then I chose to archive the old installation and install the new version from scratch.

Here is a screenshot of the archived Windows folder, apparently Microsoft has implemented some alien technologies we are not aware of that magically bend time!

When Windows Vista was first released, I was disgusted by its bugs and general unstableness. I mean, copying only a few hundreds of files causing memory overflow was seriously not cool, not to mention the awkward software and hardware compatibility at that time. Windows Vista, when it was first released, was a beta software at best.

Things have been improved since then. I know quite a few people who are happily using Vista without any glitches. For the others including myself, it was too little too late. Some people chose to downgrade to XP, and I chose to fully migrate to OS X.

This is not a post about OS X vs Windows though.

It’s all about Windows.
