Windows 7 / Office 2007 - Microsoft Jumps The Shark

If you thought Windows Vista was bad, wait until you see Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2007. This is the final straw. Microsoft has changed every Office application to the point that any previous experience with MS Office should be considered a grievous disadvantage.

Everything has changed in every application. MS Word, is the worse. Essentially, the newest version of MS Word is less useful to me than the back of a discarded envelope and a ball point pen. MS Word 2007 is unuseable.

This is like when GM announced their stategy of "Planned Obselence". This is the death-knell for Microsoft. When they should have been out making cell phones like the dimwits at Apple, Microsoft was taking a moderately useful suite of applications and denigrating them, relegating them a long slide down the memory hole.
