Microsoft admits Office 2003 'mistake'
This was not a 'mistake' in the least bit. More zdnet headline sensationalism. It was more or less Microsoft getting rid of some formats for security reasons. Any company would do the same thing. No mistake about that. At least they found the source of the problem and the workarounds are in place. No big deal.
