Additional column for Office icons representing the tools

[Unhappy]

Let me make a couple of suggestions for the smart fellows at Microsoft.

Since you'll get tons of complains from unsatisfied customers of your new
Office 2007 (which I regret having installed in my computer), at least you
could try to make this a little more friendly.

1- First, create an additional column. For what? Go to #2 (by the way, I had
to create this bullet list tool myself, because there's none in this
Microsoft Forum. Nor I can bold, underline or italize my fonts (the
shoemaker's son always goes barefoot).

2- In the second column, make available all the icons you guys so hardly
worked to install in several Office applications. People describing issues
can pick and choose those icons that are relevant to their questions. It
would much easier for people to figure out WTF... is being discussed.

3- Unexpectedly, those same icons, you, smart guys at Microsoft, can also
use to answer the questions and make yourselves appear astonishingly good at
Customer Service, without resorting to extreme typing. After typing the
disclaimer, you should be tired, right?

4- And please, this text-only forum is good for the 1980's. Now in 2008,
we're kind of used to using different fonts, bold, italics, pictures. If you
put those features in your office applications, I cannot see why you can't do
it here in a microsoft forum like this. If you can't, I'll take it as a sign
of incompetence. Thanks.

Keywords: excel, powerpoint, outlook, frontpage, infopath, access,
publisher, word, project, templates, character

Please, consider that not everyone round the world has a
24-hour-quick-and-cheap-access to the world wide web.

I travel quite a lot and in some countries I have a really slow and often
rather expensive connection. Most of the time I wouldn't be able to
download a lot of pictures and added files. Forums with this stuff are
impossible to read for me while I'm abroad. They are much too slow and
therefore much too expensive.

For me (and a lot of other helping ghosts in the newsgroups) it is necessary
to have a fast and text-only newsgroup without a lot of
"byte-eating-features". For everyone who likes to see more than plain texts
there are enough forums.
