Powerpoint is the bane of life. It is pure evil.

This Visio stuff isn't too bad because I'm generating it programatically from a database of railroad track. It's been haunting my dreams all week but is Pretty Darn Cool, actually, and I designed the implementation so it's fun.

I like Visio ... you can use it to make cool maps of fictional towns.

Say ... yesterday I attended a Microsoft conference, "Ready For A New Day," at which they handed out free product keys and resource disks for Office 2007 Professional and the Groove server. Attending the conference cost me $5.00, for parking fees, and four hours of my time.

And the seminar was actually kinda cool.

The various events can be found here

This sounds like something that would interest model railroaders.
