It may be for me. My new theme simply does not like WLW created posts – mainly because it does not create strict XHTML. Why can’t Microsoft adhere to a standard? It really frosts my balls when they have some great (and complex) products, but they can’t follow something as simple as XHTML.
Ugh!
And it was a nice WYSIWYG editor as far as I was concerned. Figures!
Get it right MS!

My brother-in-law Dave has a great post where he talks about Microsoft Word (among other things) and its usefulness. He’s right on the money in that most users simply view it as a tool for writing quick documents and not employing its more useful features.
Nice writeup Dave!

It’s going to be very interesting to see how well the new Windows Home Server comes through for end users. One very neat twist is the way Home Server is going to manage disk space.
No more drive letters for Home Server clients for one thing. The new system will dynamically manage the drive space that is made available to the server and it’s clients. That should make it very simple for end-users as they leverage the online storage and automated backup features of the new system.

With the Daylight Savings Time 2007 updates and a number of other projects, I’ve got a lot of SMS (that’s Systems Management Server) work to get through this week. There is some file permissions on our image, the monthly security patches, the DST updates, and a few others like Adobe 8 that need to go through testing.
While I like the aspect of having a management tool to do all the work, sometimes, SMS is a beast that needs to be beaten into submission.
Ah, now this’ll be a great feature for all WM6 based devices. The ability of a free Hotmail account to push mail directly to your device is a great feature. Now if they can retro-fit that back into WM5, I think everyone would be happy. After all, WM5 has had the ability to perform this service with Exchange email systems since it shipped.
At least your next WM phone will have the capability!
