My new Dell Laptop will give me that choice. Is 2007 any better?


I saw Office 2007 on my sister-in-law's laptop in Mexico. No way, not interested. The interface was downright nasty. In fact, I was given a bought-and-paid for license, never opened, to Windows XP a couple years ago. I installed it and didn't like it. So I uninstalled it and just kept using Office 2000.

Which is precisely what I'm about to try to install on Vista. I've heard rumors that Office 2000 doesn't work on Vista. That'd surprise me, but I guess I'm about to find out.

Craig Steiner
