My constant struggle not to hate Microsoft

ok, so

At work we have two depatments, graphics and customer service. All of the graphics kids work on Mac's, while the customer service folks have remote terminals that use a Windows machine. While computers are never perfect and both systems have their quirks I, with only a slight bias, can say that Mac's are definitley easier to mantain and use in general.

Here is a perfect example.

When you send an email these days you generally only type the first couple letters of the persons name and then the computer will give you a list of names that it thinks you want. This is generally awesome, but what happens if say you type a name in wrong and then it gets in your list. So instead of sending to macs.are.awesome@yeahtheyare.com it will go to mac.are.awesome@yeahtheyare.com because that was the last address you typed in that starts with "mac".

On a Mac all you do is right click on the address after you type it in and select "Remove from Previous Recipients List", done.



With Windows you have to edit the frickin registry file and delete the whole history it has for Outlook.

This is what I have to say to Microsoft.






UPDATE: I guess you can just highlight the contact in Outlook and then hit the Delete key to get rid of it from the list. Previously I was using the Backspace key, instead of the actual Delete. I forget that Windows makes a distinction between the two. I still am leaning towards hating Microsoft though.
