Default how do i enable the old menu bar

Let's get down to the truth.

Microsoft knew this was going to be a BIG problem with their installed user
base. All their efforts to play this change up validate that assumption.

However, Microsoft has a huge incentive to force the userbase to use the
ribbon. They have legal protection on the ribbon desgin and are in fact
licensing it to other companies. If they get all Office users to adapt to
this new format, there is a huge payoff for Microsoft.

They don't really care about how easy the program is for you to use. They
care about their stock options!

My two cents.
