Microsoft Word's loathsome Clippy, the Crazy Crab of application
mascots, is making a comeback. Yes, really. Killed off in 2007,
Microsoft is now using him as the tutorial host introducing you
to the wonders of the latest round of whatever useless bloatware

Chance - a video game - is now available for download, if you're
a masochist. Quoth Microsoft:  Yes, we turned Office into a

with colleagues, classmates and friends, or even put your score
on your resume to show off your Office skills!  For those of you
