Glad to see there was an exceedingly complex "fall back position" ~ you can just imagine what it'd be like if Microsoft Didn't Care ~ we've all been there before.

So, what's the big problem?

Obviously Microsoft forgot to hire someone who understands how to prepare a set of instructions or to write an operating handbook.

I say "forgot" because after purchasing, setting up and using hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of MS stuff in the past, I know they've done the job correctly in the past, if not now.

What I really got out of this is that some laid off Oracle writers must have gotten the MS contract for writing the stuff, because 100% of it sounds just like the nonsense they used to spew.

Thank goodness I no longer need to deal with MS or Oracle under a performance deadline.

It does, doesn't it? However, it also demonstrates that Microsoft's hardware division had better get in better communications with their User Interface division, PDQ. A little vetting of what they are shipping might be beneficial.
