I hate Microsoft
Particularly Microsoft Visio. I know that the product itself is a great product. And I know it does exactly what it is said to do.
My struggle with the application at the moment centers around the fact that everything you could possibly want out of a UML diagramming tool is present in Visio. Except the UML stuff.
That is something that Microsoft feels is better left to the professional version of Visio. Which means that after much wailing and gnashing of teeth I am still stuck with a product that I cannot use to do what my client needs me to do. Crap.
Sometimes Microsoft makes me want to hit them in the face. The open source alternatives that I have used for just about everything have never made me jump through the hoops that M$ does. Why can't they just buy Yahoo! already and fold so the world can be a better place?
