Hey, I'm updating my word processor on my home computer (I used to just use my work laptop). I have Office XP and Office 2003, which is better?
Bunnies frighten me.

Did any other MobileMe users get an email about signing up for iCloud? It's screaming "Phishing!!!" to me.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I was resistant to Office XP when we switched over to it at work, but it does have some pretty cool features once you get used to the Ribbon.

XP and 2003 are both pre-ribbon. That started with Office 2007, which I have to admit I like.

My Word 2003 has suddenly started defaulting to opening documents with "Document Map" displayed. I can turn off the document map, but the next document opened or the next time the same document is opened the document map is displayed. Where did that get turned on as a default? How do I turn it off , please? Turning off the map in normal.dot and then saving it give no joy on this.

Never mind. It turned out that "thumbnails" was really what was turned on even though turning off document map did close that view. But turning off thumbnails close it permanently. How, umm, intuitive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good tablet stylus? And are there different sorts?

for my ipad, I really like: Boxwave Capacitive Stylus. However, I do not draw. I take notes, play games, that's it.
I haven't been that happy with styli, so I've been purchasing some through kickstarter, hoping I'll land on something I really like.

Are ones for taking notes different from ones for drawing? I'll almost certainly be drawing.
