Gemini version available ♊︎Signs That Vista 7 — Like Vista — Will Pose Compatibility Issues
Summary: More signs that Vista 7 suffers from the same problems as its chubby sibling, Vista
IN addition to all that we know about Vista 7, last night we found more evidence that Vista 7 is doomed to be a compatibility failure. Under the hood, Vista 7 is just Vista, but there is a lot of marketing and "evangelism" to hide even the fact that reception ahead of Vista’s RTM (2006) was a lot higher than it is now.
Anyway, from IDG:
Microsoft Admits API Error On Security Center Warnings
Last week we reported that Windows was reporting, a couple months early, that some security software was using an expired API to report its status to the Windows Security Center. One reader of the ISC story we linked to stated that he was experiencing it with Panda 2009 and the Windows 7 release candidate.
Ignore the “evangelism” and brace yourselves for another Vista. █
