Microsoft making crappy products is really a conspiracy.   The actually 
know how to make good stuff but don't for the following reasons (only 
the first on is a new observation likely):

    * If they didn't have any bugs then people would think the program 
was counterfeit
    * Force people to upgrade hardware and software more often
    * Forcing a person to be certified expert to just know how to save 
documents
