Sure. Thank you for contacting me.

• Virtual (as in not a physical printer, not C2R) OneNote 2010 printer not visible on Win 7 x64 or
Vista x32; what you posted below; Daniel Escapa says fixed in current internal builds
• Inking on tablet devices (confirmed by ~5 other people onenote newsgroup “How do you ink”;
check it out) in both Onenote and composing in Outlook; what’s weird is that inking works on
my non-tablet desktop with a mouse; this is a major show stopper
• Starting Outlook when offline on a Win 7 x64 desktop (product has been installed and open for
hours on a fast connection) fails occasionally. My Win 7 RC x64 occasionally does not connect
to the network on boot. I must go to network settings and turn the adaptor off and on. This
has happened on two RC 7 x64 desktops one a Dell and the other an HP; never on any other
machine or OS in the house/network. When this happens Outlook does not seem to start and
gives some message about being offline and referencing virtualization. I tried to reproduce
this by pulling my network cable, but Outlook started offline no problems. Very weird for both
the Win 7 and Outlook flaws.
• In OneNote 2010, when you have Onenote 2007 installed and use the clipping feature FROM
2010, it will actually open 2007 and paste the clipping in there (reported in the OneNote
newsgroup “Regressions and Suggestions”)
• OneNote 2010 fails to register with search service after prompting for admin credentials on my
Vista x32 tablet. I don’t think I have this issue on my Win 7 x64 desktop.
• Outlook breaks the Windows 7 taskbar by opening a separate taskbar item, instead of using
the pinned shortcut. I think someone said this was fixed later.
• Startup seems to be slow
• I have heard of various problems with add-ins on Outlook. Don’t have a problem though since
I just use 2 exchange accounts.
• BTW something you guys do right: In Win 7 x64 RC when you start menu search “Mail” for the
Mail (ie Outlook) control panel – the 2007 Mail control panel DOES NOT show up. You must go
into the control panel and search for it. Only the 2010 virtual Mail panel shows up in start
menu search. I have Office 2007 and Office 2010 C2R installed. I hope your Win 7 team fixed
this. Both show up on Vista x86 start menu search with 2007 Ultimate and 2010 C2R installed.

My main concern is that C2R does not seem to be for me. I don’t think that installing Office is much of
a problem. Who is this product for? Companies who don’t want to run updates on each computer?
Consumers?

It is because I don’t see how this product is for me combined with the frustration that these bugs
which I discover are only in the C2R. I see why you want to get people to test C2R; however testing
both 2010 and click to run is frustrating because I don’t know if it is a bug in Office or its click to run
application. Perhaps running both normal MSI and C2R Office side by side could help us better beta
test. This way we would know where to address issues.

These are all the issues I could find, if I find anything more in the future, I will post it in that app’s
newsgroup.

Finally, In that statement you reference, I was perhaps too harsh from the frustration I described
above of every issue I was sending to Daniel Escapa was C2R only and I apologize. Let me know if
there is anything else you want me to test.

Hi, I work on the Click-to-Run product team and would to hear a lot more, besides to printing option,
as to what you are experiencing and is broken. This is just Beta 1 and like any Beta 1 product can be a
little rough around the edges, so we want to hear what is broken and what you believe works.

Thanks,

Bob
