Default Does anyone else think Word 2007 sucks as much as I do?

It is truely a shame that the MS company has forgotten the main, singular,
numero uno rule of productivity. That which you know, is to be built upon.

This is a major rewrite, when none of us really needs a major rewrite. Word
is already the worst offender in the bloated software category. Now it is
utterly ruined by someones idea of a better mousetrap.

Ever go to a hardware store to actually buy a mousetrap? "Better" mousetraps
are outsold like 20 to 1 by the ole standby.

What is the true cost to american business in relearning crap that should be
already learned? ie Word and the operating system. If someone can show me one
reason for a trillion dollar relearning curve, I'll change my tune.

But they can't. The problem is not that Word Seven sucks. It doesnt. But you
gotta invest WAAAAYYY to much in it just to type a stupid letter and put in
some header info. And BTW, you better start it from 2007 scratch, since the
format is different too. Gaud, this is an anti american plot.

manuals and I can't accomplish the most simple tasks. Before all I had to do
was hit the help button and ask a question. Eventually I could figure it out.
Is it gone completely? Hidden? HELP!!!!!

I can't wait to try Excel.
