scandals of an ITian

Yep thats right TechNet looks like it got an overall and a new paint job. I do miss the old grey TechNet that I had always known but things look a bit more organized and easy to find. Browsing and navigations looks slightly different and easier.

I would have preferred to have that “AD”  box at the footer than right at the top … oh well thats my personal opinion.

TechNet anyways rockz and it is one of the best place on the web to find resources and articles on any Microsoft Products.

Woke up this morning, coffee in hand and twitter slowly getting buzzed about the arrival of the Beta downloads for Office 2010 suite.

Click click click TechNet click click and then it was all down to waiting for the beauties to be downloaded to the lappie. Sharepoint 2010 beta was also out but that’s for another blog post.

Before installing the beta, uninstall the Technical Preview version or any previous versions of Office
