Here Come The Extras

I just ran Windows Update, and found the first two Ultimate Extras. The first is "Hold Em Poker Game". If it's like the beta version, there is no multiplayer option, but you can play a little poker (which sounds much more appealing than another round of Purble Place).

The other extra is a set of enhancements for BitLocker and EFS. If you don't have Vista Ultimate, there are still some downloads for you. One important, three recommended, and one optional update. Oh, and 15 different language packs.

Happy downloading!

My system blue-screened when it tried to install the important/recommended updates as it shut down. Not a particularly impressive start.

I'm looking forward to getting the video extra; it will be interesting to see what the desktop experience is like with motion video behind it.

What's up with Microsoft? They have this whole page/section dedicated to Ultimate Extra's and the last update is 7-Jan. Why don't they keep people in the know as to what's going on with DreamScene, for example?

A little info would help sell Ultimate editions; which I assume is the whole point of Extra's.
