Microsoft Entourage 2008 sucks



I am on a diligent quest to get EVERY MAC USER to STOP USING ENTOURAGE
and onto Apple Mail instead. Microsoft has all but ABANDONED Mac users
and treated us like sh*t for long enough. Microsoft is ACTIVELY trying
to destroy Mac users' productivity & ACTIVELY trying to make us have
less productive tools than Windows users. Microsoft is the most evil
software company on the planet. They have made virtually ZERO
improvements in Entourage 2008, it still lags WAY WAY WAY behind
Outlook for Windows, and they STILL haven't fixed HUNDREDS of bugs &
missing features that have been problematic since the very first
version of Entourage many years ago. Here's just two of the latest
problems I discovered with Entourage... these 2 problems are just the
tip of the iceberg of HUNDREDS of problems that I am not listing here:

1. Entourage is the ONLY program on the Mac that doesn't recognize
OPTION-DELETE as a command to delete the previous word that you just
typed,

2. Entourage is the ONLY email program on the Mac that doesn't
currently have an "Insert Hyperlink" command. It's absolutely
ridiculous that you have to go into in Microsoft Word first, and then
pull down from Word’s File menu to “Send To > Mail Recipient (as
HTML)”. Even then, you won’t be able to change the body of your email
message once it’s in Entourage, and you can't even control the weird
font-related issues that are applied to your message in Entourage
after going through all of that hassle. Absolutely ridiculous.

Don't even get me started on the hundreds of other problems with
Entourage.
