text: Missouri River Water Fight: Drought, Farming, Fracking And The Midwest's Tense Shipping Situation By Adam Allington • Dec 4, 2012 (via Flickr/pasa47) Politicians across the Midwest are continuing to press the President to declare a state of emergency on the Mississippi River to allow barge traffic to keep flowing. Every year roughly $180 billion worth of freight makes its way up and down the river. Now, a record shortage of water on the nation's major inland waterways is expected to put upward pressure on everything from food items to electricity. The drought effect Blunt May Ask Obama To Step In To Missouri River Situation By The Associated Press & Maria Altman • Nov 27, 2012 (via Flickr/The Confluence) Updated 3:23 p.m. with statement from McCaskill Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri says if the Army Corps of Engineers doesn't increase water flow from the upper Missouri River the next move may be to ask the president to step in. The Corps began reducing the outflow from a dam in South Dakota on Friday. That means less water for the already-low Mississippi River, which could lead to restrictions or even a halt on barge traffic by mid-December. Senator Blunt says transportation down the river could be severely impacted if nothing is done. Army Corps Moving Forward With Plans To Reduce Flow On Missouri River By Adam Allington • Nov 16, 2012 Adam Allington / St. Louis Public Radio Businesses that work and ship on the Mississippi River are seeking a presidential declaration keep water flowing out of reservoirs on the Missouri River. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers closes dams in South Dakota at this time every year to store water to maintain levels later in the spring and summer. The Missouri River accounts for roughly 60 percent of the water flowing by St. Louis. In a drought-year like this year, George Foster of St. Louis' J.B. Marine says reducing river levels would risk closing the shipping channel. Nixon: Keep Water On Rivers Flowing, Economy With It By The Associated Press • Nov 12, 2012 (via Flickr/The Confluence) Updated 12:29 p.m. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon and the barge industry are imploring the federal government to keep water flowing on the Missouri and Mississippi rivers or face potential "economic disaster." The drought has left many waterways at historic lows. Nixon sent a letter Friday urging the Army Corps of Engineers to rethink plans to reduce the amount of water released from the Missouri's upstream reservoir. That would also reduce flow on the Mississippi below St. Louis. Study Examines Missouri River After Last Year's Flooding By The Associated Press • Oct 16, 2012 (Via Flickr/USACEPublicAffairs/Photo by Maj. Gen. David Sprynczynatyk) A Corps of Engineers study says more research and monitoring are needed to reduce the likelihood of damage along the Missouri River in future floods. The study released Monday focuses on remaining vulnerabilities after the Missouri River rose to record levels last year. The flooding began after the corps released massive amounts of water from upstream reservoirs filled by melting snow and heavy rain. Most repairs to damaged levees in Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri are expected to be finished before next spring. Work on the river's dams expected to take longer. Appeals court upholds 'blight' designation for St. Charles Co. floodplain By Rachel Lippmann • Aug 28, 2012 (via Flickr/steakpinball) A state appeals court has upheld the efforts of St. Peters, Mo. to use tax increment financing to build a levee structure along Highway 370 to open the area to re-development. Corps to study long-term uses of Missouri River water, hold public meetings By Véronique LaCapra • Aug 21, 2012 (Flickr/Brian Hillegas) Updated Tuesday, Aug. 21, to add comments from South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley. Originally posted Aug. 20. What does an oil and gas boom in North Dakota have to do with Missouri River reservoirs? Hydrofracturing – the process that gets new wells up and running – takes lots of water. Army Corps says low river levels not going away any time soon By The Associated Press & Adam Allington • Aug 17, 2012 Officials with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers were in Alton Friday as part of their annual low-water inspection. The Corps has stepped up emergency scouring and dredging operations in response to the unprecedented low water levels in the Mississippi River Basin. Marty Hettle works for the barge operator, AEP. He says the river forecast is not expected to trend upward any time soon. Nixon says state observing river levels for shipping By Marshall Griffin • Aug 1, 2012 Governor Jay Nixon (D) says his administration is keeping tabs on river levels along the Missouri and Mississippi as drought conditions persist across the state. He indicates that the Missouri River may be in worse shape. "I think that the challenges on the Missouri are a little more significant than the Mississippi," Nixon said at a gathering Wednesday in Jefferson City. "Minnesota has had a fair amount of rain in that part of the country, but we're watching those issues very carefully." Morning headlines: Monday, July 30, 2012 By Julie Bierach, Tim Lloyd & The Associated Press • Jul 30, 2012 (via Flickr/Indofunk Satish) Review your route: I-64 work has begun Several ramps on the stretch of I-64 that runs through downtown closed for roadwork this morning. The ramps from 10th Street and 14th Street will be closed around the clock, as will the ramp from Broadway. Missouri Department of Transportation spokesman Andrew Gates says there will also be ramp closures for motorists heading into downtown. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 next › last »

No way. Typing on my iPad is one of the most awkward things I do in a day, but I don't blame the device. There are people in my same department at work that I have seen knock out multipage emails on one as if sitting at a regular computer.
I dunno, I just can't do it so Office would be worthless. My iPad is basically a youtube, game device, photoviewer, and mastubatory aid (porn).
I guess I'm a retard
I have the iWork apps on my iPad (and before that I relied on documents to go).
I rarely create new documents on my iPad, but I do a lot of editing, proof reading, and finalisation of documents that I then share, send on, present, etc. I consider myself highly productive on my iPad - even though I still have a notebook at my desk on which I will knock together complex presentations or spreadsheets, before iCloud syncs them onto my iPad where I will continue working on them or present them from using key note or numbers. In a typical day I spend about an hour or two in front of my notebook at my desk; and the rest of the day is spent on my iPad in meetings, workshops, waiting rooms, aeroplanes, etc.
I doubt that having Microsoft Office for the iPad will change the way I work, much. I suspect that there will be less fixing and tiding up of PowerPoint or Word documents that Keynote or Pages mangled during the conversion process. But I will still spend more than half my time on the iPad reading, editing, changing, commenting on spreadsheets, presentations and documents in collaboration with others and am unlikely to change the volume of material authored from scratch on the iPad itself just because I now have Office for the iPad.
Despite all the spite and screaming against Apple that will populate this thread, I thought I would point out that people are *still* judging the iPad as if it were a laptop.
Its perfect for what it is: a tool that is great for certain uses, and not for others. I wouldn't do programming on one, its not suited to it - even if you use a keyboard - in my opinion but if I want to view images, watch TV off the net, use Netflix, its a perfect tool. Its well designed, performs well, seems fairly bug free, easy to use, quite portable, has good if not great battery life etc.
All that said, my wife bought an iPad, and stopped using her netbook entirely at the same time. It is serving all her needs - including writing (using a keyboard mind you) quite well, and I have yet to hear a complaint.
If I had a need for one, I wouldn't hesitate to buy one myself. I am however a desktop person. I hate laptops, netbooks etc. I might get an iPad at some point but I will most likely never buy a laptop or netbook.
It's a media consumption/review device. Office readers would be great. Office is such a pig for resources otherwise, that compositional tools would be plainly insane to port to iOS.
The question itself if a fishing attempt to find feature interest. Office is coming to Windows 8 in one form or another, so do they bother to port it to iOS? Same chipset (ARM) same form factor (tablet) same profile of consumer (please, no sandals vs loafers arguments).
It's a media consumption/review device.
But it's not *only* a media consumption/review device. People who say things like that really just sound arrogant.
Office readers would be great. Office is such a pig for resources otherwise, that compositional tools would be plainly insane to port to iOS.
The iPad runs iWork apps just fine. And there are Office-compatible apps for the iPad. And MS Office ran on significantly inferior platforms for many years just fine. The iPad has more than enough RAM, CPU, and storage for Office. The OS can handle it (it's based on Nextstep).
The question itself if a fishing attempt to find feature interest.
The question has been asked since the day the iPhone was announced. People have wanted Office on all their devices since the Palm Pilot.
Yet MS has, by failing to put Office everywhere, let the cat out of of the bag: you don't really need MS Office. Geeks have been saying this for about two decades now, but iOS has demonstrated this to the average person.
Office is coming to Windows 8 in one form or another, so do they bother to port it to iOS? Same chipset (ARM) same form factor (tablet) same profile of consumer (please, no sandals vs loafers arguments).
Because iOS has been around for half a decade now, and Windows 8 isn't even out yet. Because there are already hundreds of millions of iOS users. Because (as one of the articles points out), this has shown people that they don't actually need office, and by extension, don't need Windows or Microsoft in general.
And besides, didn't you just say it would be insane to port it to iOS? But you're now saying it's inevitable it will come to the ARM version of Windows? WTF?
Then buy a bluetooth keyboard for when you have to do hardcore typing.
Problem solved.
Since you can VNC or RDP over to any computer, I've used Excel and Work on the iPad and it's not bad at all provided the RPD/VNC app can make the touch-screen emulate mouse functions properly. This however, will also be a challenge for MS' version of Office.

What you need to be able to do is dictate to the iPad, and simultaneously use a pen/stylus to make any corrections/adjustments on screen.
I guess I can see the attraction of running powerpoint presentations from the iPad, but Office in general, is there a point?
I can't imagine you'd want to be doing a lot of text input on it, would you?
This in mind, it seems to me the whole thing is a non-story. MS is now an also-ran in the phone biz, and has no footprint at all in the tablet market. Office or no office, it doesn't seem to matter.
Keynote runs Powerpoint presentations.
(Also edits and exports them if it comes to that.)
Depends on your use case... You're right about Keynote, but it's probably the single strongest component of Apple's iWork suite for the Mac to begin with. It was developed before any of the other parts, as a program for Steve Jobs to use personally when giving his presentations and speeches, because he found it distasteful and limiting to keep using a competitor's product for the purpose.
I happen to like Pages too, but honestly, it wouldn't be nearly as compelling if it weren't for Apple including some very elegant templates with it. For my business, I was able to knock out a new invoice and a 3-fold flier which looked like I paid a high dollar firm to design them for me, just by modifying templates included with the software. The Microsoft Word templates, by contrast, look more like "basic starting points" and they're so widely used, people recognize when you've used one.
For serious work with spreadsheets, Microsoft Excel has the competition beat hands-down, and that's proving to be their single strongest app in their Office suite. Apple's Numbers app is really more suitable for someone who's not even a "numbers person" to begin with, but finds him/herself with the occasional need to generate some basic spreadsheets anyway. It can produce results that look really nice, but it doesn't have the raw number crunching power of Excel (gets VERY slow with large spreadsheets), and lacks the power Excel had to do complex calculations with Visual Basic macros attached to cells.
Obviously, I'm talking about the full blown desktop/laptop versions of these programs here, but all of this translates to the iPad in fairly equal proportions. So I'd say yes, SOME iPad owners would like Office on it, especially if they do a lot with Excel. But many of us wouldn't see a point to it.
he found it distasteful and limiting to keep using a competitor's product for the purpose.
Incidentally, he never did use PowerPoint. He used Concurrence (which was a NeXTSTEP app from Lighthouse Designs) until he was able to switch to Keynote.

This has been my biggest sticking point with Numbers as well. It doesn't even have to be a particularly large spreadsheet to bog it down, though. Throw some cross indexed lookup based calculations on it across multiple tables and you'll wish you had just pulled out Excel in the first place. I really want to like and use Numbers, but it's just not in the same class.
I have the Citrix receiver as well. I'd rather kick myself in the nuts than do anything other than novelty stuff or very very basic work related administration through it on a tablet. Basic things are possible but not worth the 5-10x increase in time and effort. If I'm out and about and get a call to fix something that requires me to "log into work", I'll try to call another engineer myself or I'll respond back to the support desk that I'll get back to them in XX minutes and either drive home if close by or go to my car, grab my laptop and find the nearest free AP. Yes, I still consider those much better options then using the Citrix receiver on my tablet.
The biggest feature lacking on the iPad for remote desktop goodness is Apple's lack of support for bluetooth mice.
A bluetooth keyboard helps for keyboard intensive tasks, but even with GUIs that are very keyboard friendly the combination of BT + Wifi + RDP lag makes rapid tabbing or GUI widget manipulation frustrating on the iPad. Even at best, I find that a BT keyboard only adds about 25% additional ease of function on the iPad.
With a mouse, though, it would be a pretty appealing platform for RDP work, particularly if the iPad 3 display resolution rumors are correct.
I've found that the mouse with my iPad only gets used for remote desktop and vnc, basically to control systems that are designed for mouse use.
It is pretty funny seeing a mouse cursor on spring board the first time, but not very useful compared to the touch screen.
I've only used the mouse about twice with the notepad app, and honestly both of those times were right after using the mouse/keyboard for remote desktop.
My iPads keyboard is built into its case, so is already with me. The mouse generally stays in my tablet bag (aka man purse)
One annoying issue is you have to select which bluetooth stack to use, either Apples or the jailbroken drivers.
Apples keyboard support is much better, and works in any app with text input. But to use the mouse, you have to flip to the other set of bluetooth drivers, which requires re-pairing the keyboard as well.
Between this annoying flipping between BT stacks, and the fact I have my mouse with me less frequent than the keyboard, I find myself almost never using it.
Activator (with the Apple keyboard drivers) gives you access to all the F-keys and alt-keys for performing actions and running apps. This method is far more flexible and useful.
After finishing up an RDP session, I always flip the bluetooth stack back to Apples, for the slightly less rare occasion I want to turn the keyboard on.
So I too wish Apple would add mouse support in their own bluetooth stack. I just can't see them doing this unfortunately.
It would mean that somewhere some programmer would make an iPad app where the mouse was required for use. Would ruin the sexy image.
Apple as of late does not seem to care about their users needs like in the old days.
They have gone from a company that used to include schematics and firmware source in the manual of their product, to a company that sues someone for posting a patch to their firmware (ie jailbreaks)
However if I was to limit myself to only purchasing from companies I am morally comfortable with, I would not have a single piece of technology in my life. The entire industry just sucks now.
This in mind, it seems to me the whole thing is a non-story. MS is now an also-ran in the phone biz, and has no footprint at all in the tablet market. Office or no office, it doesn't seem to matter.
But Microsoft is still a software company and MS Office is a de facto standard in most of the corporate world. Can they afford to ignore the millions of tablets that are finding their way into offices and everyday use? If a palatable alternative reigns supreme on tablets, will companies convert to the alternative in lieu of MS Office on the desktop to insure document compatibility?
Metro is going to be a disruptive change for a lot of companies, and if they're going to go through the growing pains of changing user interfaces and how they interact with devices, would moving away from MS/Windows/Office be much more effort? In the short term, yes. But in the long run?
Can they afford to ignore the millions of tablets that are finding their way into offices and everyday use?
I think the question is more whether anyone will care if they do release it. I think probably not.
If a palatable alternative reigns supreme on tablets, will companies convert to the alternative in lieu of MS Office on the desktop to insure document compatibility?
Well this is an interesting area of thought. Some enterprises are already turning away from it now, I guess we'll see.
Metro is going to be a disruptive change for a lot of companies,
Everyone's happy with Win 7, and IIRC Win 8 has a traditional mode, so I'm not really seeing it on the desktop, and on the tablet or mobile, MS is a non-entity.
I can't imagine you'd want to be doing a lot of text input on it, would you?
I do quite a bit or text input on my Galaxy Tab. Mostly e-mail, but some other stuff as well, including some work with Google Docs, though Docs is pretty limited on Android as of yet. I have a Zagg folio case which includes a Bluetooth keyboard. The keyboard is small, but very usable, and when I close the case with the keyboard, the whole bundle is still small and light enough that it's more convenient to carry around than a full-sized laptop or even a netbook.
Of course I don't use Microsoft Office, and haven't for years, so I'm not really their target market.
I use excel for stuff all the time. Little jobs... quick, repetative, formulaic stuff. That and popping open csv's.
The one I often saw abused was access. Horrible things happen when a shitty Access side-project ends up getting passed around an office.
You seriously never encountered someone using Excel instead of a proper database? That seems to be the most common abuse and has caused untold damages to small businesses all over the world.
I've been IT my whole life and I've always found strange the concept of "proper" anything. If it works, it's proper.
That is a very bad philosophy to have if you work in IT. With that mindset, that is how we end up with undocumented spaghetti code, relational databases that aren't actually relational (redundant columns, occupying 4x more disk space should be needed, performing in like O(n!) time) and employment of otherwise kludgey, insecure, breakable, non-scalable IT solutions. They might work, but not as well as they should.
I know your quoted statement wasn't trying to say that and is likely a little more focused around the Excel vs proper database argument. Figured I'd just try the pissed-off-nerd-scold thing. This is Slashdot, after all. =)
And even still, there is a right and a wrong use for Excel. Storing tabular data for the purpose of charting and computation is its purpose, and attempting to store large volumes of other forms of data while keeping nebulously-defined tables linked and "relational" (used loosely) are really not its intended purpose. Doable, but improper. There is just way too much that can break. You need a 'proper' database to do those things without shooting yourself in the foot. The overhead of a typical database is not complicated and not costly, and should certainly not sway an IT administrator's decision.
I do this all the time (at least, I use a spreadsheet program to open a CSV database). Why?
1. The spreadsheet is in CSV (read: ASCII), so when, not if, there are problems, I can fix them in two seconds in an editor.
2. A spreadsheet program is relatively fast compared to a database program.
3. A spreadsheet allows me to view all of my data in a relatively compact way.
4. The output of a database program is going to be a spreadsheet-friendly table anyway, except you have to cut-and-paste it into a spreadsheet to use it.
So, what are the advantages of using a DB? Only one: being able to specify a highly particular set of constraints to pick out a small subset of the records (using an arcane syntax that means the query is more likely than not to be incorrect). How often do I do that? Nearly never. Far more often I'm interested in sorting by a particular column, and spreadsheets do that just fine.
For a small business, using a CSV file as a database and a spreadsheet program as the interface works quite well.
Well, if you have a simplish problem where you need to do some calculations on some data, what would be a better solution than whipping out an Excel (or equivalent) sheet with the data and the calculations?
Well, unless you mean something along the lines of "if Excel is the right solution, then Google Docs spreadsheet is even more right solution", then I can't really argue for common desktop use case. In mobile case (like Android + Google Docs vs. WP7 + it's office apps), I haven't tried so I don't know, but I suspect MS solution will give superior user experience in that case.
So what?
Windows is just an extremely misunderstood puzzle game, but so far nobody has made it to the highscore.
Ah, Excel, the most abused piece of software in the world. Is there a problem for which it is the right solution?
It is the Swiss Army Knife of the PC world.
It is the Swiss Army Knife of the PC world.
Brilliant! Just like a Swiss Army Knife, it's rarely the best tool for the job, but it's always handy and works well enough for most purposes. Plus, people can use it without cutting off their own fingers.
... ok?
Just call a programmer to come in and go over use and case studies with your needs instead, and wait 3 months for approval and have the IT director work with accounting in doing a cost analysis on how much return this would be to make this client/server sql app meanwhile you get fired because the boss wanted this work done in 1 week time only.
The whole concept is broken. The correct thing to do is break a very large excel spreadsheet into more spreadsheets for different functions instead of having the company use just 1 for everyone. If the project is important enough yes Access with a SQL Server backend but it is hard to justify it when work needs to be done YESTERDAY and Excel is right there in front of you to just start it.
Office supports all kinds of scripting. Would Apple allow apps with such scripting support on it's app store? Would Apple allow the iDevice Office version access MS online services? Unless they've changed pretty recently, I'm under impression that anything like that is a big no-no with Apple, apps which even hint at having that kind of functionality simply rejected.
If Apple would not make exception with MS, then the iDevice MS Office would be seriously crippled, so much so that MS might be right in deciding it does not want to do that. MS is trying to develop office into a broad online offering, and I could see how Apple would not accept that on their devices.
Of course there's a different controversy of just how much scripting should office application documents support in the first place, but I'll not get into that here...
Would Apple allow apps with such scripting support on it's app store?
No, that's definitely against the rules. And there's no way Apple would make an exception for Microsoft. Apple won the fight with Adobe and killed Flash as a platform for mobile. They're big enough not to have to make concessions to Microsoft either.
Would Apple allow the iDevice Office version access MS online services? Unless they've changed pretty recently, I'm under impression that anything like that is a big no-no with Apple, apps which even hint at having that kind of functionality simply rejected.
I have no idea what you're talking about there. It's common place for apps to work with online services.

I have no idea what you're talking about there. It's common place for apps to work with online services.
I meant the combination of allowing scripting and allowing online data, apart from using Apple-provided HTML engine.
(And I'm sure Apple has spent some effort trying to figure out how to meaningfully support HTML5 without actually allowing HTML5 online applications from outside it's "garden walls", but I'm pretty sure they haven't found a way, or have they?)
Apple has never intended there to be a walled garden for web apps. Only for native apps.
Why not?
I think MS would be dumb to release Office for IOS as now people have no real reason to use WindowsCE and Windows Mobile anymore.
Apple will be thrilled. Many executives who are still using Windows mobile 6.5 phones because of pocket office or blackberries can not leave these platforms and buy Ipads and Iphones.
MS is just porting the crappy pocket versions of Office [cnet.com] which are basically just office viewer applications which allow light editing. Not idea as a full blown Office solution but they are great on the go if you need to view a file and comment and make a few editing corrections or something dumb like that.
I do not know if AppleScript is supported on IOS, but MS could just port vbscript or VBA lite over if people want to run a few macros. It is not the full blown suite ported as that is on MacOSX only.
Apple will be thrilled. Many executives who are still using Windows mobile 6.5 phones because of pocket office or blackberries can not leave these platforms and buy Ipads and Iphones.
If Apple was struggling to sell iPads and iPhones then that might be the case. But they're actually flying off the shelves at an ever accelerating rate. Apple has their own office apps. I think they are quite happy with that as their solution for those moving from MS Office platforms.
If Microsoft want to put MS Office mobile apps on the iOS App Store, then Apple will of course accept them - subject to the same rules as everyone else, which means no document based scripting.
And coming at it from the other side, would MS let Apple take 30% from every sale?
I never thought about that, but you're right. MS wouldn't want to give Apple 30%, and Apple probably wouldn't want to cut MS a special deal.
Microsoft sell Office:Mac shrinkwrap through the Apple Store (online + cricks and mortar). And Apple will be getting a lot more than 30% of that.
Witch one will ween?
'Like the curtain finally falling from the Wizard of Oz to find just a small, frail, man pretending to be far more powerful and relevant than he really was,
That actually sounds like someone talking about Apple more than Microsoft.
Truth is they just want MS Office on Apple products because tablets will continue to be irrelevant to a large part of the world unless they have those apps. Also, the people trying to use them for business think what's missing is Office, but when they get it, they'll be missing the keyboard too, and probably the mouse.
Missing the point, you are.
People will continue to use laptops/desktops to create office docs, no doubt. But many will also use tablets to view/read documents.
Right now, plenty of people have the idea that you need Microsoft Office to work with documents. But as they look for alternatives for the tablets, they may find out that the same company produces a desktop version that while it isn't as feature full as MSOffice, it's much cheaper.
The author is saying the MS should create Office for every relevant platform in order to prevent people from searching for alternatives.
I remember reading about this a few months ago. The article is here [cnet.com].
Basically it is a very dumbed down version designed just to read office files on the go similiar to the pocket Office versions for WindowsCE of the past. They do not want adoption of IOS, but the pocket versions do encourage Windows and Office on desktop computer and kills smaller companies or Apple from getting a foothold in the market which would then threaten Windows.
MS has to be careful and walk a very fine line here. This would negate the reason to buy a Windows smart phone as the only reason people bothered with WindowsCE organizors over palm was the ability to read work documents. Now this gives a great reason for these executives and directors to buy an Iphone. Great now I can work on them too!
Office file formats are not going anyway. I got modded down here a few times saying I can't leave Office because I can not guarantee that my resume will look the same on someone elses computer running Office if I make it under LibraOffice. For that reason it will stay forever in business and MS Office is not going anyway as suppliers and customers will think you are incompentent if you send a document that looks funny on their computer.
So if I worked at MS I would only release Office for Windows 8 and Windows mobile and not care what Google and Apple do as I would have the ball no matter what.

If you can't figure out how to make a pdf then maybe they're right.
If you think it is ok to send a pdf maybe they are right about you instead?
That is a no no in business as HR and management love to highlight and edit cover letters and resumes back and forth in internal emails. Ask any job coach or HR person? Something not editable is quickly deleted. Also look around at various job sites and internal resume submission apps on corporate websites? They all want Word docs. Sometimes they will request a PDF, but almost always will require a Word doc. Some will accept plain text too. But if you do that the formatting will be lost and you will look incompetent and it will go right in the virtual trash bin.

Next question.
Oh, you want a reason. No keyboard.
Next question.
I agree that they shouldn't, but not for any hardware reason.
Apple no longer need to rely on killer apps like they used to in the days when PageMaker, Photoshop, Protools etc were what sold Macs. They've sidelined the companies that once made those killer apps, and even introduced competing Apple products. I don't think it's controversial to assert that their priorities are clearly Apple and its shareholders first, customers second, developers and other third party ecosystem content and service providers third.
For Microsoft, releasing Office into that environment would give the iPad (i.e. Apple) a not insignificant boost and dent Windows 8 sales. (If you can get Office on either, and that's what you care about, why would you plump for an unproven Windows tablet over an iPad?) Furthermore, they'd be in the awkward position of not wanting it to be too successful, because Apple could pull the plug at any moment, and could therefore make demands (say, for arguments' sake, require that 40% of the price of Office go to Apple rather than the usual 30%).
I can't see that it would make any sense for Microsoft to get itself mired in that swamp. Unlike other developers, they don't have to grit their teeth and bear it because Apple apps are the safest way to make proper money from mobile development -- they make plenty of money from other sources, and can invest in competing with Apple in general instead (via their own mobile OS, tablet hardware etc).
As always of course they probably wouldn't be in this position if they had invested in a culture of open standards and platforms decades ago... but winner takes all seems to be the only game anyone relishes these days.
Maybe it's too early...
"Speaking of the future of Office, did you ever notice how people use MS-Word to convince people to use Google Docs?"
Could anyone explain what this means, and what the linked-to page is illustrating?
'Microsoft's biggest miss was allowing the world to finally see the truth behind the big lie — they were not needed to get real work done.
Only on slashdot is Microsoft Office dying or not needed any more. Back in the real world; the place many here I'm sure must forget exists or something, Office 2010 is selling better than any other MS Office suite before - http://www.techspot.com/news/44268-microsoft-office-2010-turns-one-is-the-fastest-selling-version-ever.html [techspot.com].
MSFT aren't the evil machine they used to be, kids. Move on.....move on......
Slashdot used to be composed of college kids a decade ago with no work experience outside of school projects and sourceforge. I guess some still have not worked in an office yet who write such things or are just hopefully MS Office dies a horrible death
I have a love hate relationship with it. I hate Word particularly. But I only use Office and not LibraOffice because I live in the real world. I support these apps for a living and need to know how they work and how to anticipate their weaknesses. Also I use it for the same reason everyone else uses it.
That is because everyone else uses it because everyone else uses it. It is the closed file formats. I can not guarantee my resume wont look like crap on someone elses computer who runs Office if I create it with LibraOffice. No I wont bother using both because why would I do that? To make a point or something? Business needs their files to look the same and run on suppliers, vendors, customers, and employees machines or they look incompetent.
Just because you do not use it does not mean it is dying. Some people can be brilliant but clueless idiots at the same time.
MS bamboozling Android phone makers into patent royalties implies MS is just as evil a machine as they ever were. They simply have less weapons now that the hardware scene is shifting away from machines that can run their bloatware.
That really is the only question that need to be answered. Prove to the shareholders that it will, and they will support it.
Microsoft is not stupid. The future of office is not on the desktop, it is in the cloud. This is why they made Office 365, which works on any modern web browser, including the iPad.
There is not need for a "native app" for an office suite. If anything, just do what 50% of developers already to and wrap the website in a "native app" UI so that it shows up on the appstore.
Okay, I can understand wanting some kind of rudimentary spreadsheet viewing/editing application for tablet/mobile devices, but Excel is a particularly good example of a program that really needs a physical, full-size keyboard. There are numerous key combinations and shortcuts that are absolutely essential for efficient usage of Excel. If you're doing any kind of spreadsheet work, you need a keyboard with a numeric keypad, cursors, and Ctrl/Alt/Shift/F-number keys. Tapping an on-screen keyboard just isn't going to cut it, especially when that keyboard takes up valuable screen space that would otherwise be used to display more cells.
In a way, Excel is like Photoshop in that regard. Keyboard shortcuts are huge. These are applications that have evolved their present UI design to suit a desktop computing environment to the point where it would be incredibly cumbersome to adapt it to a tablet device with no mouse, no physical keyboard, and limited screen size. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, but if you did actually manage to accomplish the task, users would almost have to completely relearn how to use the application. Nor am I saying that one should even attempt to design a full-featured version of Excel for tablet devices. My view is that tablets really are best suited for content consumption for most kinds of quantitative or visual data. It has nothing to do with whether we're talking about an iPad or some other tablet. The essence of what Excel does, and how the user creates spreadsheets in it, is something I don't think could translate well to such a device. And in light of this, I think the question of whether some incarnation of Office should be developed for iOS seems to be besides the point.

Tapping an on-screen keyboard just isn't going to cut it, especially when that keyboard takes up valuable screen space that would otherwise be used to display more cells.
If you think shortcuts on an on-screen keyboard are the way UIs on touch devices are done, you haven't understood how they work. On touch devices, there are no shortcuts. The on-screen keyboard is used for text entry, nothing more. If you want to select a cell, you just tap on it, you don't press some kind of arrow button. If you want to make something bold, you tap the bold button right next to the text field. With a pure software UI, you can make any special-purpose input you want. For example, take a look at the Numbers number keyboard [macobserver.com]. You just have exactly the buttons you need, and they say exactly what they do. No need to remember any shortcuts or functional correspondences.
Wow, how did that comment get modded 5, Informative?
The shortcuts aren't about just moving around and selecting cells. If you think that's what this is about, then you obviously are not much of a user of Excel. It's about the ease, immediacy, and PRECISION of filling in cells with formulas based on references to other cells and automatically selecting ranges of cells based on whether they contain something. If I had to pinch and swipe and drag and double-tap my finger or fingers across a tablet every time I needed to do something like this, it would be horrendously slow and prone to ERROR.
Excel users aren't just concerned about doing things quickly. They need to make sure that the UI facilitates accurate and reliable construction of spreadsheets. The speed issue comes into play only because if you have to take the time to make sure your gesture was correctly interpreted, you've slowed down and lost productivity.
I have to use Excel on a daily basis, and I am also an avid iPad and iPhone user, not to mention I use Photoshop extensively in my photography hobby. As much as I love using all of these tools, I also recognize that the ways in which their interfaces are designed are quite different, and that it is their own individual elegance that makes each of them what they are.
I think this signals a fundamental change in mobile computing. Microsoft has clung to a (now outdated) model of forcing the same Windows apps on all "Windows" devices. Apple saw that there needed to be a differentiation between desktop applications and mobile "apps" in order for the mobile apps to be the best for that device. Their Tablet PCs aren't the answer. The day that Microsoft figures this out and makes a way to easily create a mobile app of some kind and separates the desktop and mobile platforms they might have a chance against the iPad.
OK, so there are some uses (such as (a) being able to look something up on the internet from the sofa without wasting a few seconds walking to the always-on desktop, and (b) being able to carry all your holiday snaps around to show to people who didn't know they wanted to see them, and (c) there are some cool games for two-year-olds to play with) but none of them apply to me.
So, I use computers for email (fondleslab no use without an add-on keyboard), web (ditto, unless you stick to read-only sites), software development (no idea, can you get Visual Studio on a tablet? - I haven't looked), accounts (can you get Quicken on a tablet? - and even if you could you need a keyboard again) and so on. I haven't felt a need for a fondleslab and haven't acquired one.
What am I missing?
Is it funny that my fondleslab keyboard is an add-on, but my desktop one isn't? They are physically the same keyboard, just my desktop isn't much use without it, but my fondleslab can still do a few things.
One of them is be mixed signal scope (with oscium plugs, which I suppose are an add-on'). I knew that watching lines squiggle across the screen was a lot like watching youtube videos, so I thought it would be a nice fit. It was.
I'm sorry to hear that software development == Visual Studio. Shell (thus vi, make loop) work just fine.
With Microsoft's stock not performing for the last few years (a decade?) maybe Apple should just buy Microsoft with it's gigantic amount of cash ($100B and soaring!).
Not only would it guarantee, forever, Microsoft products on Apple platforms but it would enable Apple to completely dictate the future of the PC industry. Even Android would probably crumble, what use is your smartphone if your competitor controls ALL the PCs that you'd likely use it with? As well as providing a viable alternative to Google search?
Maybe that's why Apple's been saving its pennies. Can you think of a better use for (in a few years) a couple hundred billion dollars?
(Ok, ok, I know the regulatory agencies in all over the world will likely have some anti-trust issues with this. But it's a useful fantasy to see what Apple's cash hoard could be used for.)
Here's an interesting article that says Microsoft (pronounced 'Ballmer') missed the boat: http://minimalmac.com/post/17758177061/microsofts-biggest-miss [minimalmac.com] Tablets in general are proof that Microsoft Office is not 'required' to do useful work. So even if MS could jam Word into a tablet form-factor (e.g. memory and screen footprints), people are now realizing you don't need all that crap to write letters, reports, etc.
(As someone who once spent several months, full-time, evaluating word processors, this is not a surprise to me. MS Word is a mediocre product, in true Microsoft fashion it captured and locked in the market through sales and distribution, not through technical merit.)
Exec responsible for Office sales: "An ipad port has the potential to send Office sales through the roof, especially if we price it reasonable enough to insure significant penetration."
Exec responsible for Windows sales: "Office is one of the driving factors in Windows sales."
Balmer: "No Office on the ipad. We will use it to drive sales of Windows 8 tablets."
Exec responsible for Office sales: "With all due respect, the company needs a product line to rely on once Windows declines. This could be a big opportunity to be relevant this decade."
Balmer: Throws a chair.
I am NOMAD!

Smart Logon
editor's review
1 comment
Smart Logon represents a small TTF package designed to change the look of Windows. In other words, this tool is capable of replacing the Windows XP welcome screen with the one found in Windows Vista, thus mimicking its appearance.
The utility is automatically installed in the Windows "Fonts" folder as soon as you run the executable file. There is no dialog at the end of the process to inform you of the task's success or failure, but you can restart the computer to view the changes.
Smart Logon serves its purpose smoothly. However, we have noticed that the computer's overall performance slowed down immediately after installing this TTF pack, and Windows startup time was affected as well.
Unfortunately, Smart Logon is not equipped with a graphical interface to help you configure settings, or to at least remove the TTF from the system. In order to roll back all adjustments, you have to go to the Windows "Fonts" directory and delete the "Segoe UI" files (there should be four, in total).
Smart Logon has never been updated and will most likely never be. If you're still a Windows XP user, feel free to test the app for yourself, while keeping in mind that you could inadvertently decrease the machine's response time in the process.

Women's Basketball Falls To The Orange
Dec. 8, 2012
SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Nai Brown tied her career-best eight points, while Tiffany Padgett grabbed a career-high two steals, but Loyola University Maryland could not hold off the Syracuse Orange, 83-48, at the Carrier Dome.
Brown made three of her six field goal attempts, and connected on two shots from downtown. The last time the sophomore guard scored eight points was against Lehigh University one year ago.
The Greyhounds (4-6) struggled from the start, as Syracuse started the game with a 6-0 run in the first four minutes. A Kara Marshall three at the 16:25 mark put the Greyhounds on the board, and initiated Loyola's scoring game.
One minute later, an Alyssa Sutherland jumper put the score 6-5, and gave the Greyhounds their smallest deficit of the game.
The Orange (9-1) responded with a 9-1 run in the next five minutes, to extend the lead 15-6.
Loyola never led in the game, but after trailing by eight, with less than five minutes left in the half, the Greyhounds goT within four, 16-11, after a Nicole Krusen three-pointer. Less than a minute later, Sutherland would follow Krusen's lead and sink a basket from three-point range, to cut away at the Orange lead.
Syracuse extended their lead to 12, after a Kayla Alexander jumper, which sent both teams to the locker room at the half.
After the break, senior Katie Sheahin would record the first six points for the Greyhounds. But the guard's effort would fall short, as the Orange extended their lead 44-26.
Alexander led Syracuse in scoring with 20 points. The 6-4 center moved into second-place on the Orange career-scoring record with 1,661 points, after Saturday's contest.
The Greyhounds shot 37-percent in the game, while the Orange shot 47-percent from field goal range.
Senior Katie Sheahin led the Greyhounds with nine points, while Krusen recorded a team-best seven rebounds.
The Greyhounds end their three-game round swing, as they travel to Army for a 7 p.m. matchup Monday, Dec. 10.

(September 19, 2011) The West Allis-West Milwaukee School District Education Foundation is holding its 5th annual Cookout prior to the Central versus Nathan Hale Football game on Friday, September 23, 2011 from 5:30pm to 7:00pm. This is an opportunity to get a good meal for $3.00 while at the same time making a contribution to the School District's Education Foundation. There will be fresh grilled brats or hot dogs along with a bag of chips and your choice of soda or water. Raffle tickets are also being sold for $1.00 per ticket with your chance to win: Central Parking Pass, Nathan Hale Parking Pass, front row seats at the Central Graduation, front row seats at the Nathan Hale Graduation, two Greater Metro Conference Sporting Event passes (2 winners will be drawn), and more.
The great thing about making a contribution to the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District Education Foundation is that all of the money stays here in the District and goes back into programs and grants that enhance our student's educational experience. Last year's cookout raised over $1250 which helped fund 23 grants for various programs at all grade levels throughout the WAWM Schools.
If you can not make it to the Central-Nathan Hale Football game on September 23 but wish to provide a donation the WAWM School District Education Foundation either contact Susan Stuckert at (414) 604-4927, email the Foundation at email@example.com or log onto the website at http://www.wawm.k12.wi.us/Education_Foundation/Donation.htm.

I think the closet/cupboard one is better. Also I don't think it's that you don't see the 40, it's that the 40 is coming/around the corner/hiding/stalking... etc. I really think these are pretty funny and smart. I couldn't swear to how effective they are, but I think they understand the audience.
Pretty good work the more I think of it.
