Gee, I'm so glad I forced myself to live in Vista land...

Should it bother me when the Office Pro 2007 installer spits out the common error box asking if I'd like to close the program, or check online for a solution and close the program?

Oh, and thanks, Nvidia, for finally, seven fucking months later, releasing an updated Vista driver for this graphics chip (Quadro NVS 120M if you care); 3d performance has been upgraded from "Sucks Shit Through a Swizzle Straw" to "Fucking Blows", so thanks for that.

Why Vista? Is it a laptop and you want some encryption security via BitLocker?

Since you mentioned it in my LJ too.. what kind of email do you have archived? alt.binary.pron? :)

It's a work laptop, and I'm preparing myself for the day all new systems will be Vista. Some are already Vista only and MS has decreed that XP will no longer be available as of January 1, 2008.

The mail I'm still trying to figure out how to import in to Outlook is Robin's from Mozilla, which stores everything in Unix mbox format. Everything on the fucking planet except for god damned mother fucking Outlook can import a Unix mailbox.

Then don't worry about it - put mozilla on the laptop and I'll keep using that one. I really don't care if it's outlook or whatever as long as I have access to my email and address/etc again.
