Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
It sounds like you will actually need a real copy of Word for the type of commenting and markup that you are doing. These areas are almost always where the cheaper options can't do full compatibility.
Quite honestly I like the interface of pre-ribbon word better than just about anything. The one exception is Pages, but since I don't have a Mac Pages is not an option for me.
There's a reason I still use Word 2003 even though I own the 2010 version. As an editor, I do not want to give up my customized toolbar or recreate my macros.
