Stupid is as stupid does.

Right now, my Quicken file (I'm running an i7 with 64GB of ram on an SSD, so it's a fast machine) now loads slower than on my last PC. Why? Well, every time Quicken launches, it goes back and talks to the mother ship. Even if I turn off the "sync with cloud" feature (why in the hell would I want my data on their cloud?) it still has to go back to the mother ship.

Microsoft cannot even get the Office 365 login correct - I select the "don't remind me for 20 days" box, and the next day I have to log in again.

It's almost like people in Redmond ask themselves, "let's see how far we can go before the masses rebel."
