13 Microsoft Patches!?

Next Tuesday is Microsoft Patch Day, and according to Microsoft's advance warning program, Microsoft will be releasing 13 fixes to plug yet more holes in Microsoft products. These fixes will include three that Microsoft mark as 'Critical' so you know your doomed.
Nine of the fixes will affect the base Windows platform, the remainder will fix bugs in SharePoint Services, Microsoft Office, the .Net Framework, Visual Studio, Windows Media Player, and MSN Messenger. It's getting more and more unbelievable how buggy this OS is... but still ... I love it.
