I dont find the need to use programs like visio or outlook...Out of office I only install word, excell, and powerpoint...Programs essential for school...I love WMP and Windows XP is awesome too...The only reason why microsoft is hated is because of major scrutinty, and jealousy...And because of people who dont know what they're talking about (not you guys) Anyhow, I can't wait till longhorn comes out, there are so many changes I would make...We have barely tapped the potential of computers...XP doesn't even harness a hundredth of the power of today's hardware...BTW, I think an awesome idea would be to somehow integrate Dragon Suite into longhorn (it is a voice recognition software, it can type for you too) ...I tried to get it but it as to much ( no more essay writing ) anyhow, I'm ranting, I just did a really big project for a client and now I'm tired...
