![]() The last two jobs I've held have forced me to use this decades-past-it's-heyday trainwreck, and even though I've used it in various incarnations (~R4-R6 and whatever the latest public version is), I would love to know what the people at IBM were and still are smoking. ![]() The user interface is the worst ever ("click that little unmarked rectangle top-left in the mail view to check for new mail!", and, oh, about 10'000 other possible examples of UI idiocy). Yeah, they're probably the worst fanboys in the IT industry "But it can do so much!" yes well if it can do so much, why is it the crashtastic pile of shite that it is today? If it crashes on you, you have to reboot the PC, cos just trying to start Lotus Notes again will give you a cryptic error message. I know that I will get the usual canned response here from Notes fans ("but, you see, it is not just an email app, it is so much more."). So my score meets both sides in the middle.I, too, am firmly in the "Notes Haters" camp. Documentary or no, it's hard to rate such a film but it's not hard to confuse the handsomeness of the guys with the tediousness of the film itself. If you are a French rugby fan you might know these men but otherwise this is just art. No full frontal nudity, though there may as well have been, because the whole film was just one modeling exercise after another, on, and on, and on, virtually no dialog, nothing but the same thing over and over. The other news: one after another, set to varying scores of rousing martial tunes, the fellows get made up and pose, usually with a strategically placed rugby ball, nearly always managing to look profoundly uncomfortable with what they are doing despite some nervous smiles. The good news: these guys are extraordinarily good-looking and no doubt some of the best physical specimens in the sporting or any other world. Let me stick to the topic and comment on the making of the calendar for 2009. ![]() Maybe people just sat through these and got on with their lives. ![]() Looking through IMDb for the several other years this documentary has also been filmed, it surprises me not to see any other viewer comments. ![]()
