I know the developer, and he's gotten advice from others. It's just too much of a time and money burden for a student to take on.

PowerPoint and Keynote also offer much higher fidelity and quality than Google Docs. Also, in many corporations it's against policy to upload confidential information to external servers, which rules out most web services. I've heard that Google actually uses PowerPoint and Keynote internally.

I like how this conversation has gone on for so long, but on the whole, everyone's still polite and detailed in their responses. :-)

I totally agree. I'm also at odds with the fact that he's made some strange assumptions here. The vast majority of Microsoft customers, enterprises, will have help desks and IT support to help out new Vista users. And why is this labeled "mac community"?

I'm really hoping for some airline to offer WiFi at all of its gates, only to its own passengers. You could use your confirmation number and first/last name to login. If Southwest did this I'd fly with them even more than I do today.

Perhaps a bit noobish, but I use the web development software Coda (panic.com/coda) and it tracks changes for me; when I publish, it only uploads changed files since my last publishing.

I was recently halfway through a project that was going strong in PHP, but I started reading about Django and Python and decided to port everything over: turned out to be a very good decision. Django keeps my code clean and Python keeps me inspired. While PHP is a good language, I would argue that it takes more self-control to program well in it.
