...not to beat a dead horse but after playing with both Office 2007 and
Vista, I'm of the firm opinion that Microsoft is a corporate dead horse
waiting for some fresh young mare to replace it ...how in the hell with
all that user and developer input they supposedly got, and all the beta
testing they did, could they come out with their two new major cash cows
both mooing for mercy ...I swear to god it reminds me of some of the
products produced by government bureaucrats in the early days of ADA
when design by committee was the law of the land.

...and then there is Visual Studio 2008 and C# and you have to think
they were produced by an entirely different company, one that listens to
and understands developers and how we work ...I know its wishful
thinking but dear god in heaven, can you imagine the next version of
Access redesigned and coded from the ground up by the Visual Studio
development team? ...hell they might even pry Access 2003 from my cold
dead hands for such a thing!
