    Microsoft Acknowledges the Need to Improve Windows 11 Following Months of Buggy Updates

    Wow you think they would learn. But they are targeting enterprise that wants zero day patches more than they want stability from their desktop OS's. Also why a lot of dev's are starting to work on mac's.
