It's truly sad that Douglas Adams isn't with us anymore.

Yeah it always messed my head up as well until I saw a programme where Stephen Hawking used a room full of silver balls on the floor to explain the effects of gravity.

Okay. A while ago I bought the student version of Office 365, mostly because of Outlook. I own the Home Edition of Office 2010, and found Office 2013 so terrible that I reclaimed the money and switched back to Office 2010 and Windows Live Mail.
Now that I have my new email address which is Exchange based, I'm thinking about buying it again. I just have two questions: Does a PhD student count as a student for Microsoft, and is this a good idea in general? I'm thinking about moving all my contacts and appointments from Live to Exchange.

Oh, I think in other countries a PhD student just counts as a graduate student, what means it's just a student. I think I'd be included then.

I need to win the lotto so I can do what I want and not have to work
Too much stuff going on right now... 6 month old, SWTOR, FFXIV, XBoxOne release in Nov. (maybe Nov. 8), apps and updates I need to work on... and all that cake to eat.

Most likely. What didn't you like about Office 2013? I've been using it for a few months now at home and have no issues with it.

I can agree with this. However I won't be doing apps or buying Xbox one etc. I've got other things I want to do.

I had Outlook 2010 in the lab. It worked perfectly and the way I like it after 15 minutes of configuring it. Then I installed Outlook 2013 on my personal computer. I tried half a day to make it work like my Outlook 2010. The Windows Live integration is so much worse than the little plug-in for Outlook 2010. It just always messed everything up. Then I was really frustrated that there is no shared inbox. I also didn't understand why they changed the way appointments are showed on the main page.
But by far the worst thing was, that they put a Metro surface onto the old interface, and this in a even more terrible way than with the Win 8 interface put on Win 7. It just had always the wrong options available, and it was a mess to get to the old interface every time to do what I really wanted to do.
It was just a messed up piece of software and a terrible step back. Really, really bad. (All the anger just came back to me ;-) )
But maybe they fixed some of the issues since then, and if I use Exchange as my main address, I think everything works better anyway.

I learnt that concept from Lawrence Krauss in a video of a talk he gave. It was before his book Universe from nothing. The talk was quite interesting but I can't search for it now as I can't get to YouTube.

Funny. I like the way Office 2013 handles Live accounts and other email accounts. It's very useful for me anyway. As for the new interface, like anything comes down to preference. I don't mind it.

OK another picture of the 'home' country for me.
Here's a place the upsets the Americans all the time, the fact that we have the better part of Niagara Falls.

re: WPC 10K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Everything was just handled much better by Windows Live Mail in my case. But that doesn't support Exchange.
But maybe my account situation is just too complicated: I have on Live account without mail address for contacts and appointments. I have one personal mail address which I access by IMAP. Then I have two Exchange accounts, which I had only temporary so I didn't want to use them for contacts and appointments and accessed therefore also by IMAP. Works perfectly with Windows Live Mail, couldn't make it work with Office 2013.
Now I would use an Exchange account as main account, and just the personal mail address over IMAP. I think even Outlook 2013 could handle that.
