And This is Why I Am Only Learning MS Office 2010 to Get a Job...

From the license terms:

"The software will from time to time request download of the validation feature of the software. Validation verifies that the software has been activated and is properly licensed. A validation check confirming that you are properly licensed permits you to use the software, certain features of the software or to obtain additional benefits. For more information, see www.microsoft.com/genuine/office/WhyValidate.aspx."

The entire reason I bought 2010 is because if fate is kind, there will be times I am working places with no Internet access--Yes! Such places exist!--and having to RE-validate the software will be a major PITA.

Ha! Fear my Google-Fu!

Thanks to Jason Crawford, who dove into Gmail in search of a better "New Gmail" experience, we have suggestions. Try these settings -- MUCH better for me.

As shaky as that fire demon....

Remember in HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE when they redrew the location of the doors, and had to move the ever-burning fire? That's how I feel now. I've put off updating my Quicken as long as I could, but at the end of April they stop supporting Quicken 6. I HATE changes to important software.
