New Re: Fascinating + Confusing.. that's fun--but only at partie
A) Google's plan was to come up with something that could threaten MS and succeeded: Office competition backed by Big Money. And that is where the plan ended. Everything that has happened since has been driven by other desires, like Google+. I'm sure there's a plan behind each and everyone, but the one plan to rule them all still seems to be stuck in a cave somewhere.

B) It could be the Onion, but the original went more like "Capitalism is on the verge of the abyss! - Socialism is about to surpass capitalism!" ;-)
As to fixing the fubars, not them (e.g. we've hacked their Exchange 2010 PowerShell provisioning scripts to work with Office 365 :-)

Oh, and if you ever thought their error messages were obtuse before:
Exchange: An unknown error has occurred. Refer to correlation ID: 58956271-ca6f-49e9-9ea9-1e5b9b0e7e72

Good luck with that...

New Hey! that's a Good error message..
Instead of 5 or 7 refs to The Knowledge Base, where different-dated and verbose/arcane mis-directions eat hours:
there's just One (albeit lengthy) ref that eats hours. In an updated-stochastic manner.

(Natch I also had no luck with trying to find M$'s Unknown Errors Listing, either ;-) but to be fair, if it's the AMA talking:
when they Don't Know, they just append an -itis to the symptom-source, and a prefix like: non-specific vaginitis [actual sample.]

Thanks for more clarification about the simple recess-playground-bully mindsets of the Armani-suited.
(In civics they never/ever mentioned! that lots of official-adults remain little-boys forever.)
Nice you could do a lateral arabesque; that must have felt almost as good as 5 min of Face-time with the ex-Ballmer with a spray-can of whipped cream (?)
