I love Microsoft Office 2010. It’s not that I was not a big fan of the current Office 2007, but I feel that Microsoft has done its job – found ways to improve the new model. My current ‘favorite’ improvement is with Microsoft Office Outlook. It solves a problem that has caused me inconvenience for years, and although I admit it is likely an issue only for a small...

I am sure you (like me) spend a lot of time in e-mail threads.  Occasionally it can be embarrassing if you are not up to date.  As I was composing an e-mail to a colleague a few minutes ago I noticed the following warning bar across the top: I was relieved that I caught this, else I could have embarrassed myself by seeming out of date.  I closed...

I owe a great debt to Microsoft Canada (Damir!) and Hewlett Packard Canada (Laurie!) who came through to supply me with a server for my last two projects.  If you happen to find yourself in the market for a server for a small to mid-sized company I cannot think of a better product than the HP ProLiant DL-585 G2 that I have been using since May.  It...

An Organized Office, and the Journey into the Unknown
