Re: Reporting bugs to Mac BU?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I just called MS to report a bug and was told the following:
1. If you have one of your 2 free incident calls/email allowances
left, you can call tech support. If the issue is determined to be a
bug, they will credit it back to you.
2. Mail the details of the bug to: Microsoft Corporation,
Attention: Word 2004 Development Group (or whichever product you're
using), One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052.
