And just as a followup...
Since I had the Toshiba laptop out, I decided to do an update on the Windows 7 install I still have on that system...
Yeah...
Well, after fighting with the Norton security package, and the Adobe Flash crap, etc., etc., I finally got into the Widows update...
Yeah...
Let me just put it into perspective: I had not used my old MacBook Pro for ages, and had about 300+ MB of updates on it. In about 10 minutes, I had all of that downloaded and installed, and was working away.
The Win Update said I had 49 + MB of updates to install. Fifteen minutes later, I had just hit 9% downloaded... I won't even go into how long it took to install what totaled 9 updates...
And when it finally hit the "You have to restart to get these very minor updates to work properly" bit... Well, I hit "Restart", whereupon Windows Update crashed and locked up the system...
Getting past that, I then have to begin fighting with Norton security again...
I am reminded, yet again, WHY I switched to Macintosh, and am now experimenting with Linux.
And the only real reason I keep this particular Windows 7 install? Because I have a copy of Amiga Forever thereon...
Yeah....
