The most important keyboard shortcut I use in Outlook 2007 is to select my signature. Unfortunately, it is extremely similar to the keyboard shortcut for setting high importance and easy to accidentally trigger, so yes, I send more than my share of falsely "high importance" messages. It's so silly that I actually write apology follow ups when this happens.
I think Outlook 2007 has been the best edition so far overall (haven't used 2010) yet they still struggle to avoid going gold without the most fundamental usability issues.
Thanks to your comment I read the Wikipedia article in its entirety and the below excerpt is phenomenal:
Despite the lack of time, [Captain Eric] Moody made an announcement to the passengers that has been described as "a masterpiece of understatement":
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control. I trust you are not in too much distress.
I would love to see a viable legal alternative to my current setup
It's more than that, though, because your current setup in many cases should be legal.
How many dollars have been stolen from consumers by way of the politicians that have been bought to extend copyright on works that should have entered the public domain decades ago (copyright is supposed to be for the public benefit, which is why their government enacted it), and how does this compare to the money the industry claims is being stolen now? I think they may owe us a perpetually growing chunk of change, in fact.
And as a preemptive strike against the pedantic counterpoint, let's assume for these purposes that yes, selling somebody the Brooklyn Bridge is stealing from them.
I'm not certain I understand why a child needs to be taught not to play with something that looks like a gun. Sure, knives are in the kitchen, as is the stove. Where are these guns, within reach on every flat surface?
Further, the number of sites with iPhone-specific versions is surprising. The potential audience is so large that those same developers making fancy flash websites also seem to be making fancy iPhone-tailored editions.
That's a good point. To bring in a car analogy, there are laws and standards regarding the vehicles permitted on the road. Would a Microsoft bigwig be championing this idea if it meant an NHTSA would be regulating their ass?
Sounds great actually. Coupled with the Justice Department discouraging monopoly abuse, we'd have the another regulator preventing MS from putting a house of knives on the road.
What about blind people who cannot speak? Personally, I don't think universities should be allowed to encourage devices except to the lowest common denominator: Helen Keller.
The solution becomes clear, then, and it's the Braille machine used by Whistler in the movie Sneakers. This, of course, is a completely different device as opposed to a variant of a viable e-book reader the rest of us use but with additional features. Therefore, this device is the only that should be allowed, and we bitches with all of our senses functioning should have some compassion and learn Braille already.
It's true. When you call Lenovo these days they proudly proclaim, "Thank you for calling Lenovo support in Atlanta, Georgia. Is this a new or existing case?"
Georgia-Pacific has it spot on if the spirit of awareness month is to irritate individuals into action. The breast cancer-aware Quilted Northern toilet paper packages contain rolls of diminished width and I've been inspired into submitting feedback of disdain via the Contact Us form on the Georgia-Pacific website.
Let's say you're work for a small business or non-profit and you have, say, four licensed copies of Adobe's Creative Suite products. When you bought them, the current version was CS62. Several months later, you've decided there's value in providing these tools to another employee. That's right, you want to give Adobe another $500-2500, depending on the product(s) included. Sorry, Adobe is now at CS63, and they won't sell you CS62 anymore. What's more, the two versions are "sort of" compatible. You can import one version into the other, but all elements may not translate properly. Nope, if you want to add another user of their software, you have to purchase another full license and four upgrades in order to keep them all at the same version!
Did you get a lot of life out of your Photoshop installation but finally decide to upgrade? Great! Check online for eligible upgrade versions. Hooray, it's listed! But wait, when you attempt to install it, it won't accept the license key from your old version of Photoshop. It turns out Adobe's installation path for your version is to call customer service. [insert dead horse about how ridiculous it is to punish your paying customers vs. pirates by forcing them to activate] So you get Adobe on the phone. "We're sorry, in order to upgrade your version, you're going to have to uninstall the product, then reinstall it again with a special command line switch."
Personally, I will avoid Adobe products wherever there is a viable alternative. Adobe chooses to follow the Microsoft example of exploiting dominance in a sector by putting their customers through bullshit those with a choice would never put up with.

Too derivative. We need something a little more clever; obscure. Firebird?

Exactly. I'd like to see those NFL motherfuckers pay some coin for "prohibiting" descriptions of games they broadcast.
Maybe in 1995.
I think Seinfeld, rather, had it right. "Limited to what, how many you can sell?"

I'm sorry, but the photos look like an interracial gangbang to me.
If you have enough money you can pretty much do what you want. Money fuels politics.
The simplest answer is usually the correct one.

Google's proposed settlement of a US lawsuit turns copyright law on its head
Good. Copyright law has been quite ridiculous for some time now.
While I agree with your sentiments, what is an 8Gb camera? Is that like a 1.6GHz hard drive?

While Firefox, by contrast, is licensed TO THE WORLD!
$20B + system built by Microsoft's new 'Danger' arm + White House IT administration = dream government cloud!
All your base are most certainly permanently lost!

Here are before and after photos of the teen.
The tin foil industry resembles those questions.
...tattooing "SETEC Astronomy" on his forehead, and launching him in a homemade balloon purchased by John Gosslin with the money he stole from Kate.
"Be a beacon."

Or, for that matter, this Roma. Not to mention this Roma. Tony, anyone?
