Yes, lets throw a bunch of peoples time and effort into pissing about with bing enterprise whilst the fad is still popular. Forget all the technical debt we've got, those 3 legacy domains and archaic finance systems don't matter anymore - right?

Love this new Windows Back up consumer tool that's magically appeared on all out enterprise machines. Really useful for corporate machines. So glad it can't be removed either.

If your IT Env is anything like Every.Client.I've.Ever.Worked.At and you set 'Prevent access to registry editing tools' for std users - you're gonna have fun with New Teams.
Users won't be able to register it as default chat app, so no presence in Outlook. 1/2

What I really wanted was a Scottish flower party.
But I had to settle for a Thistle doo.
