The quadratic formula in the new MS Word is wrong

[Nenna]

I use some experimental version of MS office 2006. It has an option to insert
a formula. The quadratic formula in it is wrong.
Have a nice business,

Several points:

- It's officially Office 2007, not 2006.

- It's a beta version, not "some experimental version". That means it
isn't finished yet.

- If you had a legitimate beta copy instead of some pirate ripoff,
you'd know that there are private newsgroups and a web site for
reporting bugs, and you shouldn't post anything about the beta in the
public newsgroups. If you really are an official beta tester, you
could be dropped from the program for this post.

- The error in the formula is a known issue, and has already been
fixed in later builds.
