A great product from Microsoft.. REALLY!, January 9, 2009

I've been using Microsoft Office on a daily basis for more than ten years. I needed to update it on my computers and Office 2007 looked like a great deal. I read the reviews and was almost scared off by the exceedingly negative reviews here and elsewhere. However, lots of people were enthusiastic so I decided to download the trial version from Microsoft and find out for myself. And am I glad I did! I'm no big fan of Microsoft but this is a great product. Yes, the interface is a little different (and a whole lot better) but even I, an old timer set in my ways, was up and running on Word and Excel in but a few minutes. It's all very logical and straightforward once you take a few minutes to understand the new scheme. And for those who complain about file compatability with older versions, the default save file type is new. However, it's simple to set the default save file type for compatability with Office 97-2003 versions (it's in Options). Problem solved. Microsoft offers a 60 day free trial of Office 2007. Download it and give it a try, you're in for a real treat.

This item was ordered on a Friday and I received it at my house on Monday. This was a very quick delivery of the product and was exactly as the seller desribed. I would order again from them. John
MS Office purchase, January 9, 2009

I purchased the MS Office Home & Student software from Amazon, and installed it on my laptop. Although I haven't had much occasion to use it yet, it does feel and operate just like other MS Office software I have used previously.

I use MS office for relatively basic operations such as word processing. I purchased this version of office for the PowerPoint that comes with it. This product requires a large learning curve to use efficiently. Other versions of MS office have not been as bad. Unfortunately, this version is substantially more difficult to use in order to accomplish many of the same tasks as before. I think MS tried to make too many useless changes just to have a "new" product to sell.
