Microsoft With Apple doing really, really well, and with Microsoft having its first sets of negative figures since the company's founding, Microsoft CEO points his arrows towards Cupertino. In a talk to members of the press and analyst community, Ballmer talked about Microsoft vs. Apple.

Last nite I made the mistake of installing SP2 on my Vista Ultimate machine......it promptly killed my sound. Looking at the Mircosoft forums, it seems this problem concerning SP2 and Realtek High Definition Audio has known since at least the end of April. And Microsoft's suggestion to email Realtek isn't very useful. This is just f*cking lame. If you can't do any better than this, I suggest you switch occupations......maybe start flipping burgers at McD's.......on second thought, don't! You'd probably end up poisoning several million people thru your sheer incompetence.

So you're blaming Microsoft for RealTek not making a decent driver.

Okiedook.

While I agree with that sentiment, if it's a known issue wouldn't it make sense for there to be a list of known issues with the release of an update or product upgrade? This is assuming it was actually a known issue to microsoft and not just a forum.
