With all the hoopla over the release of Windows 7, it’s time to recognize that the must hated Vista isn’t going away any time soon. To underscore this point, Microsoft has released platform updates for Vista and Windows Server 2008.
The updates, which include some runtime libraries to handle new technology, include improvements to: Windows ribbon and animation manager library; Windows graphics, imaging, and XPS library; Windows automation API; and Windows portable devices platform.
For those still Vista bound, information on the updates can be found at Microsoft’s support site.
