Microsoft Office 2007

Our office finally ‘upgraded’ to Office 2007. Is it just me, or is this the most wretched piece of garbage Microsoft has created since Bob? I’ve complained before about Microsoft changing the damn icons all the time, which defeats the purpose of an icon in the first place, but now they’ve gone and destroyed the whole menu paradigm that has been in existence since before the existence of Windows. I want my File menu back. I want my Edit menu back. I want all my menus back Microsoft!!! At home, I’ve already standardized on OpenOffice.org. Looks like I’ll be using it more at work if I want to get actual work done.
