MS to 'backport' Office 2007 security improvements

[Marc57]

Hey Tech,

As others have stated,I can't justify the price of Office, so I'm thinking of trying OpenOffice.

Hey Tech, as others have stated,I can't justify the price of Office, so I'm thinking of trying OpenOffice.

I've tested. It's a good one.
But there are a lot of differences, things that I was used as MS stated... macros, buttons, functions, features...
It's very hard to me to be used with the OpenOffice. Just my personal experience...

I really hate being ripped off and it isn't Just MS at it.

I could probably name another company, but if I did, I'd be skinned alive by you know .:who:.

 

And yet, though committed to open source products as I am, if I had to buy an operating system, it would certainly be .:his:.

I've used their products, and I like them a lot. Something I can't truthfully say about the other one...

Hi DavidR

You're right,

even a cheap office 2k is more expensive than OO.org

I was lucky enough to be given the Office 2000 CDs by someone who had upgraded to 2003. Otherwise I'd be using a mixture of OO.org and old 97.

Thanks for the help Tech.

Ripped off? Better not be talking about Apple

I doubt I will ever be ripped off by Apple
