Did you know that Microsoft released a beta version of Office 2010? Download it now! Google Microsoft office 2010 download it or visit this link: http://www.microsoft.com/office/2010/en/default.aspx

I have it on my netbook and there's nothing wrong with it so....

The Ribbon interface is still there. Hopefully they change that =/.

This looks worse than Office 07.

What is so special about microsoft office?

 

[froggyboy604]

I like it more then 2007. It seems faster.

I could never get used to Office 2007. It was way too confusing. I much prefer OpenOffice.

^^ OpenOffice is horrible, only good thing about it is that it's free.

Might download this beta soon, though I heard somewhere that production of Office may stop for some reason.

 

[froggyboy604]

OpenOffice tends to crash a lot on my PC.

Office 2007 had a lot too offer, you need to get used to it as it's rather innovative compared to other (older 😛) versions.. However, with some discipline everyone can (proven by my mother..)

But I will not install 2010 Beta, untill Sbfc is proven wrong!

Downloaded it, it looks horrible, but it works good. I wonder if you can customize it.

I agree. OpenOffice FTW.

Microsoft Office 2007 is highly over rated and over rated. Buying it was my worst waste of money ever. OpenOffice is much easier to use and has no stinking ribbon interface. Also I love it's ability to convert to PDF.

 

[Umbreon]

Uh... first of all, this topic is not meant to argue over OpenOffice and Microsoft Office.

 

[CyberFreak]

It isn't. We are giving our opinions on Office and in turn saying what we use instead and why.

Nice! Thanks for the link, will surely try it out later.

You can save a .PDF file in Microsoft Office by clicking one button. :lol:

It certainly wasn't a feature in Office 2007 when I was using it ( I bought it in 2007 - haven't touched it since). Maybe they updated it to add that feature. I don't know.

No, I got it the first day it came out. Office button>Save As>PDF

Hmm. Well it isn't on my version anyway. Are you dead sure it's not an add on?

 

[cityStatic]

I'm 100% sure, because I never put any add-ons on my Office.

Ok, I reinstalled MS Office 2007 Student Edition. It's definitely an add-on. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...11-3E7E-4AE6-B059-A2E79ED87041&displaylang=en

If it wasn't you, it must have been someone else that installed it.
