Higgeo Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Cool. Office is great. Open office is super. As it is free. What are the big changes???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckie Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 What are the big changes???? One big change: save doesn't work. I was typing a document for school for 3 hours, and apparently when I clicked any of the save buttons nothing was happening. I closed the document later that night and reopened it. Fail to see that NOTHING was there that I had added to the document. FAIL FAIL FAIL. It was also true that there were no auto recovery documents that were recovered by word. This was because the stupid thing didn't realize it wasn't saving. Wow Fail Fail Fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aigle Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Cool. Office is great. Open office is super. As it is free. What are the big changes???? OpenOffice is free, however no "real" enterprise will use OpenOffice, they prefer to use Office. So if you don't want to buy and learn Office, you will be screwed when you will need to do your report at school or at work. Going from OO to O2003 is all good, but OO to O2007 is a pain and will slow you down for a couple of days. So put your hands on a copy of O2007++ and learn about it. If you don't want to buy a student license for 70$ or your school doesn't provide you a free version then just search a little bit and I'm sure you will be able to find it on the ground somewhere packed in a beautiful box with the name "TORRENT" on it One big change: save doesn't work.

I suggest a reinstallation and report that bug right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love my cs4 master collection for doing most of my web / print / video production work, but for writing a simple doc, I would never try to use indesign or acrobat.

blackhawk Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I wonder if Office 2010 will be any better than Office 2007. I've used office for years including when back in the 90s it was included in many high level computers as well as Microsoft Works. I have often used Office 97, 2000, 2003, and 2007. From my experience with Office 2007 it was the worst version of office that I have used. At least Word 2007 is the worst version of word I have used. At an office I occasionally work at each time I go in I here a complaint about Word 2007 not doing something right, not remembering settings, the default settings were just strange. Although I suppose microsoft has a history of taking something that worked fine and screwing it up, like Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators daredevil Posted March 14, 2010 Author Administrators Share Posted March 14, 2010 I have heard office 2010 is going to have some social network features also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krauersaut Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I'm personally used to Office 2003 since ages and haven't switched to 2007 yet. The ribbon style is pretty overloaded and too much of a try to create a Vista-like interface. Another Office I'm using more and more is openOffice.org which is quite similar to Office 2003 and supports both .doc and .docx, but for free. I don't know what I should think of Microsoft's cloud idea yet. Who knows, it might end up with a Google-like monopoly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawk Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I have heard office 2010 is going to have some social network features also. Why do I need social networking features in a word processor though? or One Note, etc. If anything that's less reason for me to use it as it's more clutter that I won't use. One note itself is a nice program. Great for taking notes during class. And I had a laptop that would freeze if bumped and if I typed something in Word and the computer got bumped I lost it, but in One Note it saves every minute or something so at most I'd only lose a sentence or two if that. I'll have to see 2010 when it comes out for a final opinion, but for now I'm like Krauersaut and going to stick with Office 2003 and Open Office.
