Well, Steve, just because I have a walk-in closet doesn't mean I have to fill it up with 500 pairs of shoes I'll never use and which will be out of fashion in a few months.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but in
mine Word is a piece of caca and always has been (especially compared to WordPerfect), but because of the proliferation of MS products on most of the PCs out there, it's become the default word processor despite its limitations.
I'd probably feel a lot more charitable toward MS and its various products if, from the beginning, its customer support had been even semi-decent, but the fact that flaws in its own OS have allowed the security/virus vulnerabilities we've all had to live with for nearly two decades --and still aren't fixed! -- is just inexcusable. :storm:
Not only do I not like MS products, over the years I've had to go to enormous trouble and expense to keep my machine running virus/worm/spyware-free
because of MS.
My next computer will be a Mac.
