Opening Microsoft Office and other technology blunders

Ok, these are just too good not to share! I had several laughs while enjoying these websites.  First, have any of you actually encountered any problems trying to open Microsoft Vista or the new version of Office? This Flickr site (I like it best in slide show mode) makes it clear how much of a hassle it can really be!

Second, have you ever attended a technology event and the speaker just couldn't quite pull it together?  Check out some of these "worst case scenarios" (aka "worst practices") humorously put together by MEDC team at Microsoft.
 
Enjoy,

-Kev

LOL!  My favorite worst practice is the one where the guy has a slide with too many things on it and then says "And if you like that, you'll LOVE this!!!" and it has a million too many things on the slide.
