>>>I need a version of Word that will work with Vista. I can get the Home/Student version of Office ( http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-Home-Student-2007/dp/B000HCZ8EO/ref=cm_lmf_tit_18_rsrsrs0 ) for $119, which sounds great, but I'm hearing lots of bad things about the 2007 version. Any thoughts?

>>I haven't had any problems with Word 2007 aside from the completely different menuing system. I'm not a Word expert by any stretch, but for general document creation/editing/publishing/mail merge it works OK for me. It seems stable (a huge difference from Access 2007 which is a steaming pile of $hit).

>Which version did you get? I'm looking at the Home/Student version, but Craig believes that I'm unable to use that one.
