True, but that wasn't my point. I don't like it when someone wants $300 or so for an upgrade to a product I already own (legally). That's a little pricey IMO. The pricing is Microsoft's prerogative, of course -- just as it's mine to pass.

>>I am not being entirely flippant. For me to upgrade from Office 2003 to Office 2007 would cost $300 or so. So far I haven't thought of reason to do that. 2003 still does all I need it to (and way more).

>>Actually the last time I felt the urge to replace Word 2003 was after reading a review of a program called Scrivener. The feature I liked the sound of was that you can choose a clean screen as the typing surface. Sounds like an anachronism, a la some of the early DOS word processors, but I like the idea of writing on a screen with no clutter. I looked into Scrivener and found it is for the Mac only, natch.
