08:36 am - Office XP does NOT work with Vista / Laptops on trains
I don't get people who bring their laptop on the train every day. I mean, I paid like $1300 for mine, I'm not about to chill with it on SEPTA where it can get either A. lost, B. stolen, or C. broken. These people could fall asleep on the train and wake up laptop-less. As portable as it is, my laptop stays on my desk 99% of the time. The only time it might ever go somewhere is if I go on vacation.
So, for all of you on the Internet who have been saying Office XP works on Windows Vista, you are definitely wrong. It is not compatible with Vista, and I know that not just because of my own frustrating personal experience, but because it's on Microsoft's list of products which are not compatible with Vista. Wow. What a hard time I had trying to install my Office 2003 upgrade. It was like, uninstall free trial of 07, install XP, uninstall XP, try to install 2003, install XP, install 2003. Then on top of that Internet Explorer keeps crashing. Is this why everyone hates Vista?
While I was having these problems I felt like I was in a Comcast Digital Voice commercial. "No, see, I had problems before, but now I'm using VISTA." Then the announcer goes, "Your computer problems won't change, they'll just look prettier."
