I got a text message from a friend of mine today. It details his most recent experience with Windows 7.

Log onto windows 7. Open outlook. Outlook freezes. Close outlook. Now outlook won’t open. Reset VPN. VPN loses connection. Windows has error. Close all programs. Retry VPN. VPN connects. Open outlook. Outlook fails to open folder. Error persists. Close outlook. Reopen. Same error. Restart windows 7. Log in. Reconnect VPN. Open outlook. Fails to connect. Reset VPN. Connection successful. Exchange server error. Restart outlook. Windows 7 update manager suggests updates. Open outlook. Finally can see emails.
