I haven’t abandoned Windows completely of course: I still need a way to use Visual Studio for a start, and Windows Live Writer is still the best way to publish blog posts. Including this 13” MacBook Pro I now use for my day-to-day work.
It’s all fine and good if you have Windows PCs across the company, but we have - shock, horror - a few Macs. Over the past couple of weeks or so, we’ve been evaluating Microsoft Lync 2010 (previously known as Office Communications Server or some such). With staff all over the world, sometimes it’s hard to keep in touch. We at DevExpress are trying to find a better way to communicate. Unless you fall into the small section of the population who fit under that SEO-friendly title I wouldn’t bother continuing to read. If this saves someone some time, it’ll all be to the good you wouldn’t believe how much time I wasted this morning on getting it to work.
