Maxintosh Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Can someone please provide me with a link proving that Microsoft did indeed blame this on Apple? Good point erie33. Let's not put the cart before the horse. How do we know this claim is even true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzo Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I must be blind becuase I can't find where MS is blaming Apple in the posted link...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxintosh Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Remember, this is Microsoft we're talking about, so it must be a "feature" and not a bug. LOL That's right, microsoft doesn't confirm bugs. Microsoft just calls them 'undocumented' features Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmdshft Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 NO we are in a OSX86 forum, not in the intelligent-erism forum. we are fans of Mac OS and PCs, and some of Macs. I seriously hope you were joking, seeing as how you are moderator of this message board... OSx86 is not about "fandom" but about pushing the boundaries.

cmdshft Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 And what point are you trying to make again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 none. Just the same point you was trying to make, what's the moderator thing has to do with it. Moderators doesn't have the right to do jokes or moderators shouldn't have opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmdshft Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Moderator's shouldn't act like retards and say {censored} like: NO we are in a OSX86 forum, not in the intelligent-erism forum. How is someone supposed to tell that's a "joke"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numberzz Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Moderator's shouldn't act like retards and say {censored} like:How is someone supposed to tell that's a "joke"? 1. I wouldn't say bad things about staff. Do you want to be banned? 2. Everyone can tell emotions from text, I guess you never learned.

XanthraX Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Also Microsoft Word have a serious bug, when you save it in word 97-2003 compatibility mode and you try it to open in microsoft word in windows it does not want to open, the file looks corrupted. Even iWork 08 can't open it. I have not this problem. I can open the .doc files, created with Word 2008 saved in 97-2003 compatibility with Pages, Nexus, Indesign (place), Winword.

robotskip Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 im sorry but microsoft do suck and there blaming apple and the only reason why office is used is because everyone uses it anyway. Microsoft couldnt organise thereself apple are so much better but hey the world can be a cruel place at times Apple ftw Some problems with your post: a) Microsoft doesn't suck. Has it definitively been proved Microsoft was indeed using Apple as some form of scapegoat? c) Yup, Bill Gates waved a magical wand and suddenly everyone was using Office. Also, it's not like Office 2007/2008 have been extremely well reviewed and people seem to love the Ribbon. d) You randomly say Microsoft can't organise themself.. okay? e) Apple is so much better, based upon what, your opinion? f) Cruel? It sure can be, it looks you dropped out of high school. If you like, I could offer you a job to empty my bins and you could work your way up to the head person in charge of waste at my household, a lifetime achievement, but you can do it, I believe in you!

wimdows1 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Sounds like a case of an MS programmer with VB background using 1-based array indexers instead of zero based, thus doing something like (in pseudo-code): SetUserPermissions(SecurityContext.Users[1]); Whereas they should have used something like: SetUserPermissions(SecurityContext.CurrentUser); It may just be that they got the offset wrong, so logging in as the 2nd user would set permissions on the 3rd user's folders, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabr Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Sorry, but you guys are just asking me to lock this topic. If any of you have problems with the way the staff handle things around here, you can talk it over a PM with me, rather than discussing how we differ from 'regular' staff on other forums. - Sabr.
