subject: Re: PCI hardware ID in WinUpdate a Lost Cause

From: "Frank Haber" 

Let's not let Rich's harping on what should_have/might_have been obscure reality:

Accepting hardware drivers from WinUpdate has been a game of Russian
Roulette since Win9x days.  It is presented to naive users.  It's produced
thousands of unbootable computers, and corresponding thousands of support
calls.  I don't care whose fault it is; it should have been shot years ago.
