What the hell was Microsoft thinking? I mean, okay. I'm not a hater. I get it: Microsoft is a big bad corporate conglomerate. They push out small business only to replace good software with mediocre software with lots of bugs. But still... I didn't really much care.

But what is this crap? Word 2007 (for Vista, of course) is a complete redesign. And it makes no sense at all. What was wrong with the way Microsoft programs were designed before? Everyone knew how to use them, where all the features were... why screw with that? But this new layout makes no sense to me! It's ridiculous! It took me twenty minutes to figure out how to center text. It should not be this difficult.

Damn you jerks!

Hmm, this isn't helping me at all in deciding what to get to replace my current system. I've thought about getting a Mac but my in house computer geek is a PC guy and that's what he knows how to fix if things go wrong. Even though I hear lots of complaints about Vista. And I had almost decided that maybe I would finally switch from WordPerfect to Word, but now you've got me rethinking that. My current modus operandi is to write on WordPerfect but use Open Office if I need to read something in Word.

But I do feel your pain.
