Max,

That's good. Ever thought of a career in Microsoft Marketing or Customer

I like it...


Developer:
Option 1 - A2003 for x bucks.
Option 2 - A2007 for x * x * x bucks

Client:
And what's the difference in the product?

Developer:
Option 2 cost 3 times and much and runs 3 times slower - same functionality

Rocky,

Obviously you don't have time to smell the roses.

I'm sorry dear client, but Office 2007 just takes longer to do the

You see, Microsoft is looking out for us developers!
