Thanks for sharing thats good to know.
Has anyone tried MS Office 2007? I imagine they are selling it so cheap is because they are having a hard time selling it because of the whole 'ribbon' system. Does anyone here prefer the new setup of Office 2007?
Or would you rather use Open Office or Office 2003?
I'm just curious.
I have not used 2007, and wondering what I should upgrade to next. |

Open Office 3......why bother with MS when you can get the same thing for FREE.
NO more paperclip man! |

I have Office 2007 already. I picked it up in the US last summer for $100.
Honestly, I really like the new menu system. I hated it in Korean, but once I played around with the English version for a day, I fell in love with it. Really, it is better once you get into it.
I hated that Word docs were saved into .docx, but soon found where you can auto-switch that back to the old format without having to manually save in the old format every time.
I really enjoy it. |

Open Office is NOT the same thing as MS Office.
You might find this out the hard way.  |

| I have Office 2007 and I think it is great. You can really do a lot of stuff in word now to jazz up documents. |

I use Office 2007 as well. It's great.
Although I must admit this is the first time I ever heard of anyone actually BUYING it!!  |

| Excel 2007 ROCKS! You can sort by font and column, row or cell shading. If you have ever had to work a 400 page spreadsheet, you will appreciate it! |

unless your an advanced user of MS Office....then id say the 2 compare fairly well and for most people the transition is very simply and easy.... |
