RossCode Weekly #038?- 03.01.2006

After putting this together, and ripping it to MP3, I realized a few things. First, I never talked about the Office "12" announcement. It's Office 2007, and the home edition doesn't include Outlook - presumably because of Windows Live Mail and the proliferation of web-based mail clients. I think I may have missed other stories too, but that was the big one. The other thing I realized is that I sat too close to the laptop, which is extremely loud when recording (the fans kick up). I'll try to get farther away next time!
