I don't work at Microsoft (and after some of my posts I probably never
will), but I don't have to work there to spot obvious signs of the liberal
use of intoxicating substances.
Case in point.....Microsoft Office 2007. For reference, you may look at the
shart published by Microsoft that compares the new 2007 Office editions at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suites/FX101635841033.aspx .
I'd just like to point out something here....well, 2 things.
1) If you purchase Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007, it no longer comes
with Outlook. Outlook has been replaced with OneNote 2007. Now, OneNote
2007 is a fine, fine product. In fact I love it! But, just which bong were
they smoking when they decided that Home and Student users didn't need
Outlook 2007? Email is the most used application and service on the web.
Why would you drop that for Home users that (most of the ones I know anyway)
must email work associates and their workplace from home also?
2) OneNote 2007. If you have never used OneNote, you should. It is an
incredibly useful tool to keep all of your notes and epapers organized. In
fact, OneNote should be an integral part of Windows OS. We first see it in
the Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007 version. But then (POOF!) it is
NOT in Microsoft Office Standard 2007, Microsoft Office Small Business 2007
or Microsoft Office Professional 2007. You don't see OneNote again until
Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007. Then, it dissapperas again from Microsoft
Office Professional Plus 2007 and reappears in Microsoft Office Enterprise
2007.
Just what the hell are they doing? When did an upgraded version mean that I
LOSE applications. It wasn't like this with Office 2003 versions.
Why would Home & Student users need OnNote, but not Office Standard or
Office Professional users?
Really Microsoft....do the drugs at home and try (just try) to relate to
your users at work.
