That is another point. I need the M$ Office Suite for work and 
complained bitterly when they changed to Office 2007. Which reminds me 
of the faux quote attributed to Petronius Arbiter.

"We trained hard... but it seemed that every time we were beginning to 
form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life 
that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful 
method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing 
confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization."
