I don't understand I'm running Office 2000 on a lot of XP machines?
"When I upgraded to XP, I was not made aware that most of
the software programs that ran on on my previous platform
(ME), including Microsoft Office 2000, would not run on
XP"
While listening to the voices in their head blather on endlessly about
inspecific gibberish, (e-mail address removed) typed:
:: I have tried and tried to keep above board and civil with
:: you yet you continue make personal attacks against my
:: character. I hope it makes you feel like a superior
:: human being and I am glad that you have all the answers.
::
:: Also if you had bothered to read my response to another
:: user you would have seen the following -
::
:: David, I am glad things have worked so well for you and
:: the six computers you maintain. How ever not everyone
:: has had the same experience.
::
:: When I upgraded to XP, I was not made aware that most of
:: the software programs that ran on on my previous platform
:: (ME), including Microsoft Office 2000, would not run on
:: XP, hence I have had to apply patches, upload/download
:: new drivers, buy new software, and reload almost all of
:: my software programs that are no longer compatible under
:: XP. In disclaimers they (MS) have stated that many these
:: issues are by design.
The only way to be made aware of these things is to make yourself aware. Check the event viewer logs and the msi logs for errors. I find this to be the most common cause of problems when an install stops without giving you an error message.
::
:: I am sure that once I work with this version of winodws
:: more, get my computer reconfigured, reload my software
:: programs and bring stability back to my operating system
:: I will again be neither extremely satisfied or extremely
:: dis-satisfied with the windows platforms. thank you for
:: the message though, you input ia appreciated.
::
::
:: Maybe you should increase you KNOWLEDGE on how to treat
:: people with respect and LEARN personal attacks have
:: nothing to do with the quality of the software. Have a
:: nice life and buh-bye!

::: :::: I expressed my frustration with a product that has cause
:::: me to spend hours of time reconfiguring my computer as XP
:::: does not, by their own design, support or recognize any
:::: of the programs that ran under my previous window
:::: platform. Could I have stated it better? yes I could
:::: have, however at that moment I didn't offer the reasons
:::: behind it as I was frustrated and that is what I was
:::: feeling and still feel.
::::
:::: I posted my opinion of SOFTWARE PRODUCT, it would have
:::: been different had I posted a message directed at you
:::: specifically as you did <<And opinions are irrelevant
:::: when the source (I can only assume you meant me) is
:::: ignorant.>>
::::
:::: Ignorant is defined as - Destitute of knowledge or
:::: education <an ignorant society>; resulting from or
:::: showing lack of knowledge or intelligence <ignorant
:::: errors>.
::::
:::: I don't believe I have displayed any of those qualities
:::: mentioned above and no one's opinion, whether you view it
:::: as ignorant or not, is irrelevant. I would be glad to
:::: continue this trade of views for as long as you'd like,
:::: however I don't think either of us will agree....why
:::: don't we agree to disagree and leave it at that. Hope
:::: you are having a wonderful day.

::::: Exactly!!! You offered no reasons for your opinion therefore
::::: making the unsupported statement IGNORANT!

::::: :::::: Jason,
::::::
:::::: I wasn't comlaining about him voicing his opinion, if you
:::::: read the message, I just pointed out that one was an
:::::: opinion about a product that I feel is of poor quality
:::::: and the other a direct attack on the person.
::::::
:::::: I was simply pointing out that although my opinion maybe
:::::: harsh, Testy was voicing his opinion about who I am as a
:::::: person, which is uncalled for, as he has no idea who I am
:::::: or why I may have wrote what I did.
::::::
:::::: I am all for people voicing their opinions, however keep
:::::: it to the product at hand and refrain from making it
:::::: personal. Here is wishing you a wonderful day and a good
:::::: life.

::::::: Wow, isn't this the pot calling the kettle black? Complaining
::::::: about someone voicing their opinion about your opinion. Freedom
::::::: of speech applies to everyone, does it not?
:::::::
::::::: :::::::: Testy,
::::::::
:::::::: I am far from ignorant and I don't believe it was I who
:::::::: started the personal attacks. I voiced my opinion of a
:::::::: product that I feel is of poor quality. I am not the
:::::::: first one in Microsoft's history to voice such sentiments
:::::::: and I am sure I won't be the last. In the futre may I
:::::::: suggest that you keep the personal attack for those who
:::::::: attack you and not direct them to someone who has a right
:::::::: to express their opinion. Wishing you a wonderful night
:::::::: also.
::::::::
