So many things ...[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#7)

There are just so many things wrong with this, it's hard to know where to start.

The one thing that stands out above everything else is Microsoft's responses. A comedy show like SNL couldn't come up with better material than this; I was almost rolling in the aisle laughing until I reminded myself that they were serious. "We commend those users who actively seek product updates ..." could become its own comedy sketch. Congratulations, you pro-active people you, you have just installed the unremoveable, all your licenses are belong to Microsoft.

It's almost as if Microsoft wants to drive off its customer base. Having recently converted our home machines to either Linux or Mac, I certainly feel very comfortable letting Msoft fall by the wayside. The only irony in my Mac excursion is that despite having loaded OpenOffice and selecting it as the default application for documents and spreadsheets, the Mac Mail application keeps wanting to load the Microsoft Office for Mac demo when attempting to open attachments of those types. Haven't found how to make that preference change.

Delete the Office Demo.  You don't need or want it.
