Seconded. Most people I know hate office 2007 when they have to work
on it. Open Office scores by having the usual word processor interface
instead of a stupid ribbon which is totally non-intuative and forces
everyone to be either retrained or stumble around the tabs blindly
looking for the save or print dialog which is hidden on the office
logo button (which doesnt even look like a button)
