Thanks for the ideas! I went with Word 2007. I've only used it a few times (in the lab at school) and it made me feel like an idiot. Notes is also a good (bad) one!

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!
So Sean, what you are trying to say is that I shouldn't buy that game, right?
Drew, if you really despise yourself that much, I can give you my copy. Free of charge.
Also, GC, I am so with you on the iPhone UI *LOVE*. As long as I have any kind of pokey appendage, I can use my iPhone. *LOVE*!

Um, yeah. That came out...
Yeah.
But you'd need two pokey appendages to do a lot of the cool UI tricks

Windows Vista (which I have only looked at/heard reports second hand)
Eh. It doesn't bother me. It helps to have turned off the User Account Control.
"WARNING! You are about to MAKE A DECISION about using your computer! Are you sure? Are you very sure? What if you regret it later?"
The funny thing with Vista User Account Control is that it's actually a good idea. To prompt you when a program is making a big system change, for security reasons (clamp down on viruses, etc). Mac OSX does it, as does Ubuntu etc. The problem is in Vista is that that seems to prompt all the time.
