A Truthful Microsoft Ad
For a change, here’s a Microsoft ad that’s actually truthful.
And they expect us to pay for this.
One more thing: Stop using Microsoft Office! It’s bloatware. OpenOffice can do more and it is only about 100 MB. It can save a document to PDF. Can your precious MS Office do that?

@Marc – “OpenOffice can save a document to PDF. Can your precious MS Office do that?”
Well, mine can, you just need to install Adobe Acrobat Professional… You can do much more than saving a doc as pdf actually…

You want me to install yet another program for a feature that should be built in. How pathetic.

Aargh! Anything but Adobe Acrobat. It’s horrible! And GAH! It costs freaking 450 USD for the Professional version.
However, Impress sucks currently, I filed a couple of bugs and wanted to do more but the problems just crop up all at random times. The Academic Version of MS Office is pretty much free, and that’s what I use for presentations after I tried and found Impress lacking. I also never use presentation software, so I’m unlikely to be biased. Powerpoint is less worse than Impress is, but they’re both hopeless.
