Major Changes Hidden in Microsoft PowerPoint Update
PC Magazine
In this case the Mac version is not yet ready but Microsoft decided to go ahead with the Windows version since the actual attacks going on in the wild are all Windows-specific. The Mac version will follow when ready presumably. The second point is that Microsoft has removed support for “the very old PowerPoint 4 converter (PP4X322. DLL)” with the release of this update. This program and the formats it supports are more trouble than they’re worth it would seem and it’s years since they have been the default format on any supported version of PowerPoint. They provide a registry hack you can apply to re-enable PowerPoint 4 support in current products but they advise that you unapply the hack afterwards. Finally file converter support in ffice 2000 and ffice XP has been upgraded by back-porting the latest code from ffice 2003 into it.

New station fires the imagination
Burton Mail
“The number of homes without simple equipment like a fire alarm is absolutely baffling because the initial ‘get up and go’ warning saves lives. “We’ve got a small office where we sometimes give lectures about fire safety but to have a bigger space will be great. “It will open up all kinds of possibilities and we’ll be able to present our points much better than before using Microsoft Powerpoint. “Housing the community groups will allow us to engage much more comprehensively with the people we serve and they’re sure to pick up safety tips from being around the station. Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service is spending £46 million on 10 new stations across the county. Alexandra Gerrard the authority’s administrator estimates the new station will be ready to open by December 2010. She said: “There’ll be temporary accommodation at Cheadle Road for the Uttoxeter fire service while the new station is being built and they will operate in exactly the same way.
Why Microsoft Named Its Search Engine Bing
PC Magazine
The company’s tendency is to absorb a basic product then reinvent it. Perhaps the moniker should be not reinvented here. In the process of reinvention the company either lets the product languish (like PowerPoint) or ruins it to the point where it is unusable (ever tried Front Page?). So if there is a good search engine being developed please don’t sell it to Microsoft. But It’s Nearly GoogleMicrosoft’s unfortunate copycat strategies will not result in anything other than a weak copy of Google with some visual tweaks to make the presentation look better.
