You know tech journalists are scraping the bottom of the barrel when you see articles with captions like "screenshot leaked of Windows 8" that include pictures that are downright worthless or when you see article after article about Office 365 (guilty as charged), which is still in private beta (not even public beta). Ah, years like 2010 are hard to repeat: It saw SharePoint 2010, Exchange 2010, SQL 2008 R2, Office 2010, Data Protection Manager 2010, Lync 2010, and more!
