I hate it.  Hate it hate it hate it. 

I hate the trend of MS to make everything giant and cartoony and not simple and normal.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

There is a way around it.  Look at the help database, and search for a way to change the toolbars to look like 2003.  I have done it.

Everything I've found says you have to buy a patch or something.

You get used to it, and once you do you realize the ribbons make more sense. I hated it at first too but now ... oh something shiny!

Well, yeah.  For the most part.

I hate it, but I hate Word 2003, too.  Word sucks.

I have a new font of my handwriting.  It looks like crap in Word but converts to pdf really nicely.

BigDun

Is there a large cash incentive to fulfill your wish? I could probably look them up and pay them a visit.

Corporate IT just told us that they are rolling out Office 2007.

Jessie

I hate it, but it's probably because we're changing a TON of stuff right now and this is just one more thing to adjust to.

I've been using it for a while, so I'm over all of my gripes. What I find helpful is the context menu that pops up when you do stuff.

"you sure you don't want to use a condom?", stammered Erik with sweat beading down his brow.

Grinning, I slowly poured my brandy into the crystalline goblet.  "It doesn't quite work that way, my friend", I exclaimed while gently caressing the arch of his hairy foot.

Turns out that we're going to have to revert to 03, because MS removed the ability to export Access reports into Excel, which is crucial for what we do. 

What the hell.  Stupid Microsoft.

I mean, I'm fine with going back to what I know, but that seems pretty stupid.

Also, apparently if you install Office 2007 and you already have Visio installed, it will eat your computer's brains.

fuck docx srsly, but open office crashed more on me than any other program in the history of my computers.


ReBurn

lolol docx. Nobody uses that junk anyway. You always have to save as Office 2K3 if you want anyone to be able to use your junk.

Please please PLEASE tell that to my stupid clients.  They are continually sending ".docx" stuff.
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

BigDun

There's an add-in for Word 2003 that will let it open .docx files.

I'm at MS today. Are you sure you don't want me to shoot someone?
