    I have loaded on office07 does anyone know whether it is worth updating to office10 or not? I really like 07 just from a usablity point of view and would be happy to upgrade if 10 really had something to offer over 07
    Lou,
    It depends if you have Office 07. If so its definately not worth the upgrade. I have just installed Office 10 and outlook is very cumbersome and cluttered. The new features overall are disappointing. Wishing I could have stayed with 2000 but parts are not compatable with Vista. I am finding even after a full install Excel, Word etc has to install every time I use it. Something not right there.

    Yes, (K)Ubuntu is really good. I intalled Kubuntu on my wife's old clunker after she upgraded to a new machine, and it works much better on it than Windows XP ever did.

    For someone who just does the normal office stuff and e-mail/web browsing etc. it's great!

    Unfortunately I have to use a few specialist programs which are windows only, so I can't switch over to it totally.

    Cheers,

    Personally I do not like office 07 [I only have XP with a trial version of 07]. I do prefer XP with Office 2003--only use Microsoft Word and Powerpoint in Office.
