I was searchin the net for sites about Microsoft Office consultants. Google pointed me to:
http://www.crazycolour.com/products/0958237239
Now, that's an interesting site, because Cheat Sheets, lists and things is something that interests me: I am sure there is a cheap way of making money out of pre-prepared lists. So, I figured I'd click around the site. But then I got:
