If they want to make things better they ought to buy TEO and integrate the functionality into Outlook.

Warning: rant!

This is the stuff that really gets into my hair follicles. Doesn’t ANYONE at these damned companies USE THEIR PRODUCTS LIKE THEIR CUSTOMERS?!!? I don’t understand how they can be so fekkin ignorant! They’re SUPPOSED to be frikkin SMART, according to what I’ve read of MS’s hiring practices. Why don’t they hire some damned USER CONSULTANTS? Giving them FREE advice just makes me sick.

I’m sorta “getting over” Microsoft Outlook. I lived in it when I worked for Big Accounting Firm and I started out my own practice using it because I was used to it, even though I use a POP mail account for my email. I’ve grown tired of the amount of computing resources and hard drive space that Outlook consumes. I’ve long had a GMail account that I’ve used as backup. I’m experimenting with going all GMail all the time. So far, so good.
