Demystify a few computer terms

• As Olde Grammy Crabbye used to say, "Just because
  no one understands you doesn't mean you're an
  artist." She was talking to her ancient cockatoo
  at the time, but she could have been talking to
  any software developer, Help writer, or product
  support person. This week, let's explore some of
  the most common software words and phrases that
  threaten all that's lovely about our language
  (not to mention our sanity).

Reactions to Office 2003

18
By Jordan Elliott

• It definitely looks cool.  Here are some
  reactions
•  
• I like the Outlook layout a lot better.  There
  are many ways to create quick shortcuts to
  different things, calendar, folders, etc.
• I like the new way Outlook opens documents for
  editing.  However, it took me a second to figure
  out how to save it the right way.
• The switch from New Mail to Folder view in
  Outlook is a little confusing because the former
  doesnt contain the public folders.
• Outlook does a better job when the wireless
  connection comes and goes (as in my apartment). 
  In the old version it was virtually unusable but
  now it connects automatically.
• I find the difference between the Mail view and
  the Folder List irritating.  It would be nice if
  it would default to the Folder List.
• When I hide the office assistant I get message
  that pop up saying that it is not available in
  whichever program I am using.
