Patch Pittance

Tomorrow IT pros can breathe a sigh of relief and maybe even take a real hour-long lunch. That's because Microsoft is releasing only two patches. A "critical" patch fixes remote code execution (RCE) holes in Windows Server 2003 and 2008, while an "important" patch fixes RCE vulnerabilities in versions of Office -- from Office XP all the way up to Office 2007.

My guess? Next month we'll see a far larger batch of patches.
