 AND the textbook AIN't much help either! March 7, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
What was going on in the minds of these so-called MS-Office "geniuses" when they decided to enhance the new MS-Office programs? Did they ever stop to think that even the average student is finding it difficult to get their work done, because they can't even locate where the print icon is or why they couldn't open their document, because they forgot to save it under a converter to 97-2003 version?
Isn't it so much easier to have kept the orginal formatted version of 2003 and just add the enhancements according to its category? I'm suppose to be a computer instructional assistant who mentors students who range from having excellent knowledge of computers to absolutely NO knowledge of computers whatsoever...Yes, that's right...People who have "NO" knowledge of computers whatsoever...And the funny thing about it is - the ones that DO have excellent knowledge of computers come to me for help, because they can't figure out how to simiply cut-copy-and paste their document...That got me there!
Since we both were having an extremely difficult time following the darn textbook, I just showed 'em how to do it the shortcut way...The best way I knew how ~ right click on your mouse. LMAO!
Here's another issue ~ if Microsoft isn't willing to revert back to the original way they started out their software...I sure as hell am not willing to spend more than $450.00 for the newer version. I'd rather much be happier with 2003's version.
 NIGHTMARE TO LEARN -- NIGHTMARE TO USE March 3, 2008

We were using Office 2003, and the company decided to upgrade to both Vista and Office 2007 simultaneously. The overall result has been slower performance of both machine and user.
The change to the ribbon menu system has made everything unnecessarily complicated and ponderous. The user is actually left to relearn everything, and there is no option to return to the classic view.
You can tell instantly if software is good because it is intuitive. Unfortunately, Office 2007 is counterintuitive. The simplest things before are now harder to do. The features you most need are harder to find.
Moreover, the system is unstable. I have saved documents in the new .docx extension of Office 2007, only to find later that they cannot be opened. The .docx is also Microsoft's way of forcing those using Office 2003 to upgrade to the inferior Office 2007.
I suggest that everyone start switching to Open Office and begin breaking away from Microsoft, a company that does not bother to consult with the consumers before bringing out a flawed and unwieldy product.
I need to rant March 1, 2008

Honestly, this version of office has infuriated me beyond belief. I actually want to do harm to the Microsoft idiots responsible for the UI design. I have always supported Microsoft's UI design. The old consistent window menus are gone, and now you got something called a ribbon. You'll jump through hoops trying to adjust the stupid thing.
It takes me longer to do a simple task before I found out where they hid a command. Bottom line, navigation is completely different. Was this supposed to be easier to use? It seems everything I need to do take a couple more steps.
The operating system gets mangled (Vista) and now Office. I have never been this annoyed about a software product from Microsoft. The last software that annoyed me this much was Photoshop, which I felt didn't support the shot-gun approach.

I've used MS Word since the mid-90s, and this is like a slap in the face from Microsoft. I can't imagine they tested this with anyone not involved in its development. Everything one needs and has learned to access in earlier versions has been spread to hell and back. It does auto-formatting contortions a python would be proud of. I had to set up a task bar with all the old icons...heck, I can't even describe the struggles I'm having. I got this suite on the cheap (educator's discount), and am going back to using Open Office, which I had installed on my new machine to tide me over till I got MS Office. Microsoft, for God's sake, stop changing stuff simply for the sake of change, and before you foist another such abomination on the public, take a few users of old versions and have them give it a run...and I mean average users--the kind who don't need or want every damn cutesy thing you can come up with.
 I needed it and I'm glad I got it here! February 14, 2008

I like the new versions very much. I had to get this and I'm glad I got it here. So far, so good. Fast shipping, too.
