Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 Internal bug list... yet to be fixed!

It’s a true story that just happened last week to New York Times tech columnist David Pogue!

Using Pogue’s own description, Office Mac 2011 is “buggy”, “un-stable”, “problematic”, and “missing features.” Something he experienced first hand when Outlook for Mac failed several times to send his review of the Microsoft software to his editor’s work email account (the one set by default) and got him almost sacked!

So before upgrading to Microsoft’s latest office suite for Mac, make sure to watch the video below first

Even the Redmond romper can’t escape the clutches of the global downturn.

The software giant said trends seen late in its first quarter (reported today) “are now forecast to continue, whereas previous expectations were for the economy to improve in the second half of the fiscal year.” Microsoft’s fiscal year ends in June.

As a result, the company said sales for its second quarter (ended in December) should be between $17.4 billion to $17.8 billion. Analysts on Wall Street had expected $17.96 billion.

For the fiscal year ended in June, Microsoft now sees revenue of $64.9 billion to $66.4 billion. Analysts were looking for $66.51 billion.

That’s still a lot of dough.
