  • The anti-writing word processor

    Jul 31 '01
    Pros: Lotta features, that's for sure...
    Cons: Unfriendly, confusing, not really writer-oriented.

    Summary: They call it word processing because if you're just a writer you're going to find it does a lot of unnecessary things that don't really have much to do with writing. In fact, they don't even have to do with making printed documents-- you can now insert ... read more

  • Microsoft Word is too Wordy

  • Steal Word 2000 legally and get 5 free programs

    Dec 09 '00
    Pros: The least expensive legal way to get a fully functional, fully supported copy of Microsoft Word 2000. Gets to work right away. Easy to learn and use. Enough online help and documentation to preclude reading the printed manual.
    Cons: Works interface is needless and clumsy. Full installation eats up nearly a full GB of drive space, remedied by not installing Works launcher (see review for information).

    Summary: [The following is a review Microsoft Word 2000 sold as part of Microsoft Works Suite 2001] When Microsoft gets it right, it's a thing of true beauty. Even the most rabid haters of Bill Gates have to grudgingly admit that ... read more

    Summary: Word, who doesn't use it? For my work I am required to use Word, and I've used Word 97 for quit some time with satisfaction. For my work I tend to write reports with lots of tables, bulleted list and paragraph headings that should give the ... read more
