ADK version not updating in SCCM

-
 I recently updated the ADK on my SCCM server to current, but the ADK version in SCCM (Boot Images, Upgrade Distribution Points) remained stubbornly at 10.0.19041 and I could not access the Drivers tab on my boot image (which is what happens when your image and your reported ADK don't match). Various repairs, reboots and general hacking and slashing came to nought. What did work in the end was running Start, Microsoft Deployment Toolkit, Configure ConfigMgr Integration and take the default (for me) option to remove the MDT extensions (console extensions only). After running that, the ADK version matched up.

Reading Planet Mozilla I couldn't help but feel there was a bit of bile towards Safari - no grown up "room for all of us in the market" sentiments they used to urge on IE devotees. They also were concerned about reportage that Safari was a better renderer and launched rebuttals . But then I saw this post and started to understand. Steve Jobs is hunting Gecko, so the Mozilla community, thinking they had an ally, now realise they have an enemy. This is pretty juvenile on both sides. The enemy should be IE and their crap CSS support and their awful ActiveX. The IEBlog h...
