HP shatters excessive packaging world record

All the same

IBM are just as bad we recived a single iSCSI adapter in a box big enough to fit a 10u server, there were 6 layers of boxes inside that and the whole thing taped was firmly to a pallet, complete with warnings not to try and lift it without mechanical aid.

This is where all the costs come from for the hardware we order!

MS update ate my CPU cycles

Bah

"By James Carter:

This is just Microsoft's gentle reminder that you really should be upgrading to Vista/Office2007. So get with the program!"

If only it wasn't affecting my Vista machine with Office 2007 installed....

So far it seems that ticking 'Don't auto update' + splitting ot the integrated office updates has fixed this bug but now when I try and manually update it returns error 80244028 and fails.... I was really getting along with Vista up to this point.
