Reducing the number or reboot requirements in the next builds?

Any plans about reducing the number or reboot requirements? Because every
time I install a driver Windows Vista needs to reboot.

Hi,

For driver updates, no as the hardware has to reinitialize to use the new
driver file. Reboots for other updates are being reduced where possible.
Think back, as there was a time in the mid to late 90's where virtually
every update required a reboot, now many security and other software updates
do not.
