Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 Review (continued)

Microsoft Office and Student 2007
This is an excellent product that allows me to do my school work both at school and home. I love getting the Microsoft Office Insider Newsletter. It is filled with a vast amount of helpful info.

Overpriced and Bulky
Only bought this because my fiance is used to Office, and she wanted to have all the graphics, templates, etc. and so forth.
I'm more of a fan of OpenOffice.org, which is a free open-source suite that does pretty much everything MS Office can do, and the files are compatible with each other. I can easily handle MS Office documents in Open Office - but I don't have to deal with silly, dancing paper clips trying to "help" me or nagging reminders to upgrade, update, and buy more content.
I was interested in checking out MS Office, but they've changed so many of the menus and such, that I don't even want to touch it. I like the older version of Office (2003) we have at work, I don't like the changes in this 2007 version. The one part of Office I miss having is Publisher, but they make you buy the really expensive version of Office in order to get that. I miss the days when Publisher was included in the student version, or when you could buy it standalone for $79. Yet another way Microsoft is alienating longtime customers who know how to use a computer.

Needs more software for the buck
I liked the packaged. Just a little disappointed with the price with Microsoft. Amazon was the best place to get it for the money. Ebay's sellers were terrible. They must think buyers are a bunch of suckers. Before you purchase anything anywhere do your homework.

Small MS Office 2007
I find this a very adequate platform for my uses at home, though I would have enjoyed more this is quite useful and I would recommmend.
The service and delivery from this store at Amazon was terrific.

I wish MicroSoft would leave well enough alone.
I ordered this Student and Teacher Office package omly becauase I had "used up" the licensed copies from the previous version Office (2003). My reward for trying to obey MicroSoft's license agreement was software that barely recognizable. They also omitted the Outlook Express that was part of the Office 2003 package.
Now, I need to relearn Microsoft Word because the 2007 version is sooooo different. Had I known this, I think I would have chosen to download OpenOffice (for free!). It's interface is more intuitive and the price is right.
