1. Comment - Mac Office 12 to Get XML Formats, Too

   (Jun 2, 2005 - 10:27 PM)

   Shades of Word 6.0? I hope not because this is exactly what they did with Word 6.0 which is one of the worst performing Office versions.
   It was downhill for a while after Word 5.1a and it wasn't until Office 98 that Word and other Office applications where written clean again for the Mac. As for Entourage I think some one should launch an investigation why Mac Office vX and 2004 doesn't have MAPI support, which hinders enterprise acceptance of Macs in the business environment. The DOJ should wake up!

2. Comment - Microsoft Seeds Developers with More Longhorn Concepts

   (Sep 29, 2004 - 10:31 AM)

   I don't believe WinFS nor Avalon will be deployed in time.
   Other components like Indigo are more likely to make it.
   The rest of those concept videos are now vaporware because
   of Microsoft's latest announcements admiting the need to lighten Longhorn to make the realease date. All the concept
   videos are based on WinFS technology, either heavily using
   it or to some part. Reminds me of a Byte magazine March 1992 pg 26. column I read "Microsoft may offer a limited voice recognition capability for Windows this year". We all know that didn't happen.
