Cancelling or Canceling?

cancelling Which is it?

I would have thought that if I choose Australian English as the language for Windows Vista that the error and dialog messages would be in my language as well. I am sure if I choose French I would not get US English in the dialogs. Strike against Vista!

Stuff like this really bugs me!

It still doesn’t mean I want Linux though – (actually, do they do the same?)

Now, I do know that Office 2007 has Australian words in it’s dictionary – some that are included are – G’day, Sickie, Ute, Trackies, Bogan, Dag, Sheila, Wuss, Uluru, Galah, Jackaroo, Dob, Bonza, Cockie, Dinky-di, Ugg, Waratah, Ironman, Ridgy-didge, Bradman. I guess it’s a start.

I am adding this just to see if Google will start indexing them.

lol, that sucks. I’m actually using ubuntu now and I’m actually surprised at how good it is.

Ooh, you’ve broken your blog with those rough Australian words

This has been an issue with Microshit stuff for a while hasn’t it? You can have Windows set to one language and Word to another and get all sorts of fun suggestions.
