Re: Will Vista stall Net traffic?

Exactly! Providers have neglected DNS for far too long, upgrading everything else while leaving it on half-ass equipment with marginal speed.

In the 90s, the typical network admin mindset was "how good can I make this network?" while today it's much closer to "how little can we do to just keep it as-is?"

But all those limping DNS systems can't be blamed on Microsoft, so there's no rabble-rousing punditry possible. And these guys (past accomplishments, notwithstanding) live by stirring shit at Microsoft's (and other large corporations') expense.

If there is a slowdown, it is one all the most vociferous internet adherents have been begging for - a switchover to IPV6. So the only issue is will the DNS system be upgraded to handle IPV6 or won't it. This idiot complaining about Vista has targeted the wrong product. The real goal should be to upgrade the ancient DNS systems managed by all the ISPs.
