MS Office Beta Notes This is a side-blog where I intend to keep all of my notes from Beta testing new versions of Office. This will keep them all in one place for future reference. I started this with Office 2003, and am bringing it back for the 2007 version. This is not an official Microsoft site, this is just the ramblings of one IT guy.

Outlook speed One of the things I've first noticed about Outlook 2007 was that it is slow. Many people have complained about how slow 2003 is when you first open it and it goes through checking for new mail, and while it is slower than 2000 I never thought it was that big a deal. 2007, at least for me currently, seems even slower. It is completely impossible to do anything within Outlook until the whole program loads and it downloads all the new mail. It doesn't seem too bad after that, but having to wait for it to go through all of this before I can check something like a contact phone number or a meeting location in the calendar is a pain, and it makes me very weary of testing out the built-in RSS reader. I can't even imagine how long it'll take before I can do anything if I have to wait for my 230+ feeds to update too! That being said, I'll probably give the RSS reader a run through with a few selected feeds before I make any final judgments on the speed. I'll be sure to let you know how it goes. Tags:
