Interesting stuff

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Apparently I’m not the only one who thinks Office 11 only being available to Windows 2000 and XP isn’t a big deal.

Kevin has an interesting post about how the IT department is always an after thought. I’m sure we could all tell some stories about that!

Pocket PC Thoughts has a bunch of stuff about the new iPaqs and an interesting post about Office documents being handled better by Palm devices than PocketPC. Can you tell I’m really giving this site a ton of attention in my bid to decide on what PDA to get for Xmas? 🙂

On the work front, not too much going on at the moment. I’ve got some database maintenance stuff to do, to get ready for this month’s billing next week. As always I’ve got a bunch of little projects that people are waiting on, so I’d better try and get some of those knocked out!
