New Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010 Service Packs Roll Out

jones_supa writes "While service packs are out of style for the Windows operating system, Microsoft has pushed out another service pack (SP2) for both Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010 products. According to the company, they provide key updates and fixes across servers, services and applications including security, stability, and performance enhancements and better compatibility with Windows 8, Internet Explorer 10, Office 2013, and SharePoint 2013. The updates are available through Windows Update and as separate downloads."

    I really hate to sound like I'm defending MS here but when it's fine to post an update about Apache OpenOffice one day but it's not OK to post an update about MS Office the very next day then there's a serious case of double-standards going on. I get that this is /. where for a long time the company was referred to as M$, but that's hardly a defence when somebody points out blatant bias.

    No need to defend Microsoft. They did not post.

    If this was a shiny new version of Office or even SharePoint, fine. But this is a service pack to a version that is not even the latest version. It is like posting about a patch to OpenOffice 3 a year after OpenOffice 4 is out.

    And just to calm down the impression that I would be anti-Microsoft: I work almost exclusively with Microsoft products. I have nothing against Microsoft. But I still think that posting news about a trivial update on /. is a waste of time and space.
