How To Pronounce It

Another new site: Office 2010 The Movie.

I had to spend 50 seconds to download and install Silverlight, and another 33 seconds to watch the movie. But now I know how to pronounce Office 2010. Ladies and gentlemen, it's...

"Office Twenty-Ten"

That is all.

   Thanks, I'll make good use of the 83 seconds that you saved me. (Woohoo! It's cocktail hour! And 83 seconds.)

   Cheers, Deb.
   
   I was actually surprised by how fast Silverlight installed. I've been putting if off because I figured it would be a typical Microsoft install and take 20 minutes, followed by a reboot, and then 20 more minutes at a troubleshooting page. But that 50 seconds is not an exaggeration. I did have to re-start Firefox, though.

   Apparently I'd already installed Silverlight, so I was able to watch the video without the 50 second delay. It's interesting that they call the year two thousand ten, and the product twenty-ten.

   You forgot the step where it makes sure Windows is genuine.
