I’m working on a client website.
They’ve agreed to give me direct access to their CMS <Good>
Their CMS is Microsoft Content Management Server <Bad>
Microsoft stopped supporting CMS years ago <Worse>
They no longer provide any documentation on how the damn thing works <Worser>
Oh yeah, and although it “works over the internet so you only need a web browser to use it” it relies entirely on ActiveX controls that only function in Internet Explorer. Which means I (a Mac) have to run a virtual machine to run IE just to deal with this ancient crap product.
I freakin hate Microsoft.
