It just stopped saving 2 hours in.
Did you figure out why? Did the internet crap out on the laptop halfway in or something?
No, everything worked fine.
Also, I've literally had people tell me they won't use word/excel cos office 365 sucks and then proceed to fumble around in Google docs and whatnot and their excuse is "I don't know how to use it that's why it looks like it sucks". Ummm... ever thought that might be the case with Office 365?
God, people hate one company only to go and suck dick from another.
I have a friend who uses everything google, plus some other free crap. Every time something fucks up, or he must jump over hoops to emulate some functionality, or g cancels something and leaves him hanging - I ask him why he doesn't want to use something I use. It's paid, but with yearly subscription it's something like 1$ a month. "Nooo, paid software is evil, and this thing is soo convenient, and google is great".

@MrL I've heard that before and is also followed by "Pfft. You're an idiot why would you pay for this when you can get same stuff for free. It's all email pfftt lose"
Idiocy is difficult to deal with.

@MrL: Some companies don't seem to understand that time is money. Personal example: spending 15 minutes trying to get conferencing-software-of-the-week working, for a 30 minutes meeting. Of course it'd fail, and we'd go back to using something that was known to work. And that happened more than once.

I used a POS called gotomeeting that cost me days, not hours, of productivity and getting shit done.

@MrL That shouldn't happen, ever. Docs will give you the standard 'are you sure you want to close this tab? Work will be lost!' message if you close it without it syncing. Yeah, fucking up syncing is bad, but so is ignoring warning messages.

Shouldn't, heh.
