office was only half done when you see it from mattisdada's development POV you actually realize that he is right and office 2007 sucks balls, the reasons for this:
-there is no simple way to convert docx files to doc so if you forget or didn't realize someone didn't have 2007 your screwed
-the new xml layout is unnecessary and only half completed (some objects won't group together properly)
-publisher doesn't have a ribbon which was a big development mistake
-from what i have read the new engine for word 2007 was only half implemented, because they rushed the end of it and used old word code to complete it in time for the release of vista, that's why only power point has decent word art

and also although not part of office directly web expressions should have had a ribbon and there is no excuse for not having one since it was released after  office 2007
that's my rant
ubuntu ftw

I use my iPod touch and iTunes and instantly I know where everything is, Apple software is extremely user friendly. I think Microsoft just don't get their customers.

and i have to agree apple are much more in-touch with their users, just look at their ad campaigns i think they chose pretty good likenesses for the two operating systems
