Heck  the IE, all products from MS are garbages, thus Garbagesoft. use FF and Safari instead.

I suppose that's why more businesses use Microsoft Office than any other software...must be the "garbage" factor...

The actual reason why most use MS Office is because most use Windows and get the latest Microsoft software. MS Office is in fact no better then OpenOffice. If most businesses used Mac or Linux we would different office software leading.

You do realise all these results are sporadic and are determined by network traffic at any given point in time correct ? ?

Cheap shot:  if more businesses could use Linux, we would have different office software.

And you would have to spend a lot more training your staff!

I'd prefer to use Internet explorer to Safari... If Apple has to get people to download it through itunes updates I don't see what good it could be.

Or even better, do it the Linux way, Copy and paste fragments of C code from other projects, and then complain to the developers of those projects you copy-pasted from when it seg-faults and/or dumps core. Within that complaint make sure to at some point make a snide remark regarding microsoft, that is the way- Call MS programs "Garbage" While simultaneously being unable to create anything that works half as good as the MS equivalent. But wait! It doesn't crash when you do *insert random series of events* on the settings page- because it doesn't have a settings page. as such, it must be better then the MS equivalent, not counting the instantaneous segmentation violation, just press ignore.

All the more reason to just develop an app yourself, eh BC?
