vista is one piece of JUNK

after 1 night of compressing all my files and trying to squeeze as much space as I can to fulfil the "2gb" requirement  to update to windows Sp1

-
and after 3 hours of trying to update Windows vista bootcamp to Sp1

I get this message, stuck on my screen for like 30 minutes:

-

and after which when i rebooted the machine, I got this:

see the tiny words above/\

-

like... What The Fish

(minced oath...)

-

I PAID for the darn windows and they tell me its not genuine... 

!!!

-

WGA false positives are DUMB...(luckily, after another reboot everything worked out fine...)

---

I compare this to the updating of leopard versions: 10.5.0(aka sp0) to 10.5.1 ->10.5.2 -> 10.5.4

-

its simply  takes a few minutes, and works fine

-

Or even upgrading a older gen Macbook form Tiger to Leopard... the install just takes about 1-2 hours, and after which the computer works fine...

-

zzz

---

on another note, I was installing it over a Vmware bootcamp VM (as i kinda didn't want to lose 3 hours of productivity on my mac)

-

maybe I'll try native install and see if they still give me this crap...

-

Update: native install apparently is significantly faster... and I didnt get the problem.
