an AMAZING new technology from microsoft!




you've been waiting for such a breakthough all your life!

In its next NT service pack, Microsoft will debut patch technology that
will drastically cut down on the amount of files and bytes an
administrator must download and install, according to Jim Allchin, senior
vice president for the Personal and Business Systems Group at Microsoft.

"This patch technology will be much smaller in size," Allchin said. 
"[With past services packs] you [had to] ship the whole new DLL or file.
But now it will be able to determine that only these bytes have been
changed, and it will only ship the changes."

could it be? Microsoft learning a concept from the outside world? Bill has
been drinking too much Apple juice lately.
