This won't matter much to many users; who needs to Update Office? I mean, EVER?

I dumped MS Offices years ago, migrated to LibreOffice, plus it's free. Works just fine for all my needs.

I so hate Microsoft now. Used to absolutely love them but Win 10 is a literal nightmare. Now MS will of course alienate the MAJORITY OF ITS USERS on Office too. So 47% won't be using Office 2019 because they're still on 7 like me.

F OFF MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta love the notion that all Win 10 computers, corporate or not, come with all games and bloatware available for EVERY F'ING PROFILE. After undoing this shit, it's only redone at the next "feature update" for Win 10 (i.e. 1703 to 1709). Yeah.......i love knowing my stupid end-users can play video games.

And of course let's not forget the bullshit "fast startup" which never actually shuts your computer down to fix a problem requiring a "restart". How does MS justify this. Printers disappear randomly. The SMB1 protocol was disabled to disallow 'unauthenticated users' access to a shared drive.

As a network architect, I have seen it all and Win 10 has shown itself to be a terrible OS in general.


Also.......who the f*ck ever wants their START menu to EVER have a "show ads" on it hmmm????????



And this is why Office 2019 will die before it's even popular.
