Outlook 2007 - Word HTML vs. IE7 HTML

Just how bad is it that Microsoft decided to drop Outlook’s use of IE7 as it’s HTML rendering engine and move to Word 2007 as the rendering engine?
ForeverGeek has a side-by-side comparison (between Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2007) of an e-mail viewed in both rendering engines. This is horrible Microsoft, why would you do this? […]
