Between viruses, security patches, crashes and other frustrations with using Microsoft software, personal-computer owners may wonder whether it might be possible to avoid Microsoft products. That is the subject, as it happens, of a thought-provoking Web site, aptly named Living without Microsoft (www.livingwithoutmicrosoft.org).

Microsoft: The existence of alternatives
changes everything 04/15/2004 11:48 AM
The announcement that US regulators want to prod Microsoft to share more information with its partners underlines how things have changed for the software giant. I remember the siege mentality in Silicon Valley during the first Microsoft trial. The company's browser bundle and its battle with Netscape seemed to make competing against such a dominant, cash-rich rival almost impossible. Who was going to be next? It became a cliché to talk of Silicon Valley venture capitalists asking "the Microsoft question" - how will your new technology fit into the Microsoft ecosystem, given the impossibility of fighting City Hall and taking on Redmond directly?

Microsoft Office PowerPoint® 2003 05/27/2004 03:09 AM
The Data Assistant for Microsoft® Office PowerPoint® 2003 provides an easy-to-use method of inserting and managing graphical data objects such as Visio drawings, and Excel charts and named ranges into PowerPoint presentations. There are three basic features for the tool: inserting graphical data objects into PowerPoint, saving graphical data objects for future use, and retrieving saved graphical data objects for reuse. Because the Data Assistant creates a connection between PowerPoint and the host application of the data object (Excel or Visio), you have the option of inserting the data object as it was saved or refreshing it to reflect any changes that were made to the data object.

Microsoft To Bridge Office, Back Office
Apps 01/26/2004 01:10 AM
Microsoft continues to build bridges between Office desktop apps and reservoirs of back-office data. The "Information Worker Bridge" project now under way seeks to make it easier for integrators or in-house developers to make Excel or Word de-facto front ends for back-end accounting, ERP or other applications, sources said. In theory, this would take back-office integration beyond ODBC drivers and InfoPath, the Office application that lets people build dynamic forms on their desktops that tap into back-office XML data.
