    man without a face is not without a name

    That guy Biggles is taking some pounding in the media, after a [url=http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,135814-pg,1/article.html]Network World[/url] report of his latest presentation, a follow-up to the one that motivated this thread...

    Look at the end of page 2, at least they recognize that they are discussing comments "reportedly made", the ZDnet pundit they link to seems to think all that was reported was a serious comment. I suspect however that the media focused on exaggerated claims made in jest...

    But what sounds more disturbing to me is this....[quote]In a 132-slide PowerPoint presentation, Gutmann outlined numerous features of Vista that he says are frustrating customers and programmers.[/quote][b]132 slides!![/b] :eek:

    Ironic that a presentation on frustrating aspects of technology should involve such an acute case of PowerPoint Poisoning.
  • croxiscroxis I am the walrus
    Why do you think i have my students give presentations by interpretive dance instead =Þ
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    Because you want them to ridicule you forever and ever?
  • JackNJackN <font color=#99FF99>Lightwave Alien</font>
    This thread has a good shelf life...
