Thing is, all my machines had to be rebooted after installing the patches. I think I'm good.

Soft boot is different than hard boot. Good luck.

I have, multiple times with multiple computers and none had problems. There is likely a hardware component to this--that is, it only BSODs with a certain chipset, BIOS or CPU revision.

That's probably true. It's happened to me and my *guess* is it may be related to BIOS UEFI support.

Maybe Microsoft uses systems with no UEFI. Or the testers said "don't ship" and some idiot manager didn't listen.

Wouldn't be the first time that some BM did that.

One of the comments on the article cracked me up. It was the standard "this is why you should use Mac" comment, forgetting the time a Mac patch reformatted the hard drive.

I understand. Leaving my previous work digs was bitter-sweet. To this day, I still miss most of my colleagues; great bunch of people, and most, a pleasure to work with.

Yeah, that's how I felt after my divorce. Well, except for the attachment to the old part.

As soon as you leave the the current company, the great times you had add up to your "Best moments" stack and the not so great moments add up to your "Thank god I am out of there" stack. In any case you should feel better to the choice you got to explore new world!

I just got a Silverlight updater turn up on my machine offering to update my plug in. As I am under the impression some dumb bastard has castrated my development platform by withdrawing support for this platform I decided to investigate via the Learn more about this update.
It takes me to a website [^]telling me it is going to update my version to 4.0.60531.0. and was released some time in 2011.
The scary thing is that my user base may attempt to do this, while most do not have admin rights there are a few who this will probably screw up their system if they apply the upgrade. I predict the minions are going to be pissed with MS over the next few days.

Youch. I wonder if that's related to the IE patch that is apparently SO bad that it warranted mention on a Country Music radio station.

Random Question From Out In Left Field Of The Day
If you could have one superpower, what would it be? (The ability to have all abilities, and other things of that ilk, are not acceptable answers)
Mine would be transmogrification.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Not a kind of superpower, but I have always wanted to have Eidetic Memory.. 
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!
