Comments to blogs are less visible than the blogs themselves, especially to feed subscribers, yet they can be equally or more interesting than the original entry. Since I blogged about Outlook 2007 performance problems, the comments have kept on coming. Here’s the latest:
I can only say that my Outlook 2003 was OK, but after upgrading to 2007 its just been insanely slow. I can barely write an email, Outlook will hang while I type. Unbelieveable that my ten human fingers are faster than a computer capable of doing millions of calculations per second … I am wasting 2+ hours daily waiting for Outlook.
Why do users care so much about Outlook? Maybe because it is where they live; email, contacts, appointments, everything is there.
At least, it is where they live at the moment. Nobody can afford to waste 2 hours a day on slow software.
I realise that not every Outlook 2007 user is affected - just the ones with the largest mailboxes. These are the people who use Outlook most intensively. Microsoft should give this urgent attention.
