Losing 8 hours of work sounds like something he deserved if you aks me.
Anyone foolish enough to trust a computer not to destroy his work by
NOT SAVING FREQUENTLY deserves what he gets...and it appears to me that
this person who is blaming Microsoft for the problem he created...needs
to learn how to use Command-S a little more often...

just my opinion....
-----------------

Just _my_ opinion: If software has been advertised to work, it should do so as
defined by the company. I doubt that Word's packaging says "This product may
erase all your work while saving" because if it did, no one would buy it. They
never said it, so it really shouldn't happen (ie the idea of saving a file does
not include destroying it irretrievably (sp?)).

Thus: while the dude should have saved a lot more, perhaps, and not have used
the Save As... selection, it is still microsoft who screwed him up in the end.
