A projector is also office equipment
Jakarta Post – Oct 30, 2007
Take it away from us and we’ll die. What’s still missing? If you look around you’ll realize that people are no longer willing to spend too much time on trying to understand what you’re telling them. That’s why Microsoft’s PowerPoint has become a must for professionals working in a team. And what better way to share PowerPoint slides among team members than a projector? That’s also why in the last few years projectors have been selling in increasing numbers. An engineer needs a projector to present his breakthrough design. A salesperson needs one to take along with his notebook as he tries to make convincing sales offers. A marketing director needs one to present his business ideas to the rest of the company’s board… What’s still missing?

Two More Challenges To Microsoft ffice: Glide And ThinkFree
InformationWeek – Oct 30, 2007
) seamlessly at least in theory. In reality it really depends on how complex your formatting is and how many of Microsoft’s more advanced features you have used. If you keep it fairly basic the documents open and display as they would in ffice but ThinkFree can’t play sound or animations in imported Powerpoint documents pivot tables in imported Excel files or complex formatting from Word documents. That’s because the ThinkFree ffice program equivalents tend to stick to simpler functionality than Microsoft. If you are looking for every bell and whistle this is probably not for you. ThinkFree Premium which adds syncing to the product uses the concept of a Webtop (like a desktop on the Web) where you store all of your personal documents. nce you move a document from the desktop to the Webtop whenever you change the document either online or offline ThinkFree automatically syncs the two versions.

We said how can we do better? Scott and I worked for a month and a half and then when everybody came back from vacation in January we showed them a prototype and a PowerPoint deck showed them this vision and people said ‘keep working on it’. I asked whether the prototype was based on. NET from the beginning or “Project Cool” as the rumour went?Anders: “No it was not. The original prototype was written in Java. I loved Java as a language and Scott did too.
