Kirb’s Musings

Kirby Witmer’s ponderings, ruminations, and meditations of… anything.

Are you still running XP SP 1? If you are, you better upgrade to Service Pack 2, because Microsoft has ended support for Windows XP SP 1 and 1a. Now just imagine how much easier my life would be if our business would adopt a policy like that. When somebody calls in about a networking problem on their Windows 98 machine, I would just say, “I’m sorry, but we only support Windows XP SP 2 or later.”

Google has merged Writely & Spreadsheets into Google Docs. Wow! Very nice. Now I would like to see Google continue to merge products. Wouldn’t it be great if Google Calendar and Gmail were included yet?

Ha! I’ll bet he feels dumb.
