Title: Dumb Microsoft product
Post by: Quik on June 06, 2005, 08:00:21 PM
So, I was writing my report in Word, and I put in a very specific date. The tooltip displays a message, and hilarity ensues.

The Irish Revolution and the IRA.

Interestingly enough, it let me schedule a meeting for that date. Wonder when it will remind me..

If it can textblock anything that comes out of your mouth, I'll use it.

Just kidding,

Nah, dumb microsoft products are the combination of IE and Windows Update. For instance, yesterday on my recently formatted XP box, I figure I'll download some updates. Well, ofcourse Microsoft seems to think it's necessary to restart after just downloading the new Windows Update. That's right folks', no actual updates/paches/service packs, just the mother fuckin' program. Now, that was just stupid. But, whatever.. I restart, download some updates, restart again [ugh]... Then, after I'm going through the updates trying not to get frustrated, I get in a fight with this here banner!
