		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve been hit by a bug (or what I thought was a bug) in Microsoft Word 2007: images embedded in the document did not display in any mode other than &#8220;Full Screen Reading&#8221;. And since the editing ribbons are not available in that mode, it&#8217;s hard to get work done. This all started when [...]]]></description>

Yet you just aren&#8217;t listening to us! Well, here are two recent all-too-obvious-in-hindsight DRM travesties by Microsoft that might have you reconsidering.

		<description><![CDATA[Drinian (regular commenter here) pointed me to a great series of articles on the failings of Microsoft in recent years. Particularly, the Windows APIs are inconsistent and not pleasurable to use from a development perspective, and with Windows Vista and its flagship applications, Microsoft has released a wildly inconsistent smattering of user interfaces. I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been around the block a couple of times when it comes to using Windows as a desktop environment (unfortunately). The least I can do is help ease others&#8217; agony by sharing the toolkit of extremely useful Windows programs that I&#8217;ve accumulated over the years. Many of these programs you&#8217;ve likely already heard of (such [...]]]></description>

This far out from the Windows XP launch I had at least marveled at several people using it, although I hadn&#8217;t switched to it myself just yet. But I haven&#8217;t even had the opportunity to see [...]]]></description>

I was trying to use OpenOffice to put a thesis paper together and the images just weren&#8217;t working, so I switched over to Word 2007. The difference was truly night and day.

		<description><![CDATA[Microsoft Windows Vista has been out long enough for all of us to get some perspective on it. The over-optimistic sales forecasts are in the past and it&#8217;s settling in for the long haul. Make no mistake, in the long run, you don&#8217;t have any choice about eventually using Vista, just as, say, using Windows [...]]]></description>

The paper itself is rather long (and a highly recommended read), so here&#8217;s the very short summary: Vista is going to suck it longer and [...]]]></description>
