Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The first question I have is why move to SP1 when there
appears to be mounting evidence suggesting that it's not safe to do so
yet? Am I willing to take the chance that my install will proceed
smoothly?
If I do take the leap of faith, I'm told that I
should use something like Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image 11 to make
a complete image-based backup of my entire hard drive, in the (perhaps
unlikely, perhaps not) event that SP1 will eat my Vista installation.
That's nice to know, if not very confidence inspiring.
But my view is why risk it at all? With Vista SP1, Microsoft is clearly
still in beta test mode, whether it's prepared to admit it or not.
Vista is a great OS just as it is. Before taking the plunge with Vista
SP1, I will want to know exactly from Microsoft what it is going to do
to make life easier for me. Right now, all I'm hearing from Vista users
is how SP1 is making life harder.
