Note of Interest:
 Most of the rambling diatribe contained within this section is taken directly from Microsoft website or Wikipedia. Method of madness centers on; I fail to find anything remotely positive to write about Microsoft’s latest over-rated incarnation. Do I use this product? Yes. Is it worth the price and inconvenience to learn? No... My reasons for learning this latest nightmare are directly related to current job function. Basically stated and reduced to simplest terms, I am paid to answer computer questions for those better suited to use Crayola Crayons, and it’s inevitable my employer shall eventually support this product. |
