About "PC versions" and "Mac versions" of computer software

This will be a bit of a rant. I've noticed several software manufacturers (more often video games) who use the phrases "PC version" and "Mac version" for different versions of their software, to allow people to choose the one that will run on their computer.
While this designation is true for most users of these types of computers, it's actually very misleading and I believe it prevents people from understanding computers better -and also their options. I'm going to explain why, as simply as I can.

How to add "Fix broken text" to MS Office Word 2007

I had to do this for somebody at work the other day.
Older versions of MS Office Word used to have a menu item called "Fix broken text", which would practically fix the codepage of text in the document and make special characters appear correctly in case they didn't.
Despite this function still being useful in some cases (the coworker I mentioned hasn't been the only one with this problem) it's been removed from Office 2007 and there weren't any clear instructions I could find for how to add it again. In the end I made it work and I'm going to describe how.
The following instructions might work with Office 2010 or later too, I can't say as I've not tried it.

Short intro

I'm not even sure if I'll keep this going, and how long! But the idea is that if I want to say or show something that I'd like others to see I'm going to make a post about it. That something might be a ridiculous idea (probably the most common type of thing), instructions to do something that I found at least partly on my own, something that could by some stretch of the imagination be called a "comic" or... whatever else I feel like posting.

In the unlikely event that you're reading this 10 years from now, the story about the squirrels and the instruction manual is totally fake.
