Me "four" and the local users of an Office 2007 roll out I am doing here.

(By the way, this company is doing a 100,000+ machine roll out.)

Don't tell me they forgot to do a focus group with these folks because users
here are all asking the same question in class - where is the bell.

Me three ;-) I support staff who monitor many calendars and, "Where has the
bell and faces (where others have been invited) gone ?" is becoming a common
question.

Me too. I'd also like to add my name to the list of frustrated users missing
the
reminder bell icon. I know many others who feel the same way.

Well, I didn't take it away, but yes, Microsoft uses a lot of focus groups
in their study of how people work with computers. They also make heavy use
of usability labs and even send people around to offices to watch how real
people in the real world work. They are also aware people miss the bell - I
had the opportunity to speak with the product team recently and it was on
the list of user complaints we discussed.
