Ain't this a tad off topic? :-)

My notebook is giving me blue screens, so I moved Outlook to another
machine.  Now I have to set it up again.  Who designed this beast?  The mail
transferred in the PST.  The contacts transferred.  The email accounts did
not.  The look did not.  I am totally lost trying to figure out how to make
the damned thing operate the way it used to.  Using the registry is a GREAT
CONCEPT, but in operation just sucks.  

Note to self, if I am ever going to use the registry to store operational
settings, provide a "move" method for taking those settings to a new
machine.

Note to Microsoft, DO THE SAME!!!

Note to Microsoft, provide a SINGLE PLACE to go find ALL SETTINGS for a
single thing.  Stuff is scattered from here to hell and back.

I found this.

Can you BELIEVE THIS!!!  Let's spend the whole damned day moving your email
from one place to another.

Rant mode off

Don't have a signature, haven't found that yet.
