    Looking back at beta testing phases for Vista, bear is amazed that why the testing did not detect or solved bugs, issues n problem with vista? Delay and etc did not help?

    More importantly testing were done by professionals, before it went to public. Why these professionals and the public did not detect? Did they really really test it?

    btw, the antivirus comes together with vista expired. It block internet access for “security reasons”. Had to uninstall to get it to connect to internet again. All other vista and the antivirus gave same problem. Quite a few virus caught though, even at some of the online payment sites. Dunno what those worms/virus/trojan are doing there…

    Bear got another antivirus software. But not the same as the one provided. Scared it blocks again the next time it expires.
