 Function specific menus a real winner! October 9, 2008
R. Taylor
I have been using Microsoft Office in various versions since the days of DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows Me and now the current version on Windows XP. I mainly use Word, and at first, the new interface was a bit daunting since the commands were not in their usual places. However, after using the program for a while, the function-specific "ribbons" really make a lot of sense and improve productivity. One of the greatest features added becomes apparent when you highlight some text. At that point, a tiny menu appears above the highlighted text with many frequently used functions (bold, italic, text color, style formatting broom, highlighting, etc.). Right clicking the highlighted text brings up a huge variety of options including dictionary look-up, synonyms, translation (into a limited number of languages), as well as several formatting functions.
These contextual menus as well as the ribbons appear in all the applications providing the appropriate commands for the application being used.
Installation was not a problem at all. You should know that I installed this under Windows XP which is running using the "Parallels" program on my iMac. I could not be happier with this whole setup.
All in all, it's also a very stable program, although I had search and replace problems with one document I was working on. Invoking the search and replace command froze up Word, but it successfully brought up all open documents without a problem. As an aside, this problem did NOT occur with the Mac version of Word.
Still, I like the features of this program very much and would highly recommend it to any user of a previous Office program.
 Illegal copy October 9, 2008

This was a ripped off copy of the programs. I was not happy to recieve it and was more upset I wasted money on this product. I hope that Amazon will police what people sell on their site better, especially if is something that is easily copied. I destroyed the copy and went and got the product else where. I also will never by software from this site again unless they can fix this type of problem.
Software, M/S Ofice (MAC) October 9, 2008

Due to confusioon on my part we got Office (windows), wanted one for the MAC. We felt your Consumer support group was very helpful and did a great job getting the unit we wanted, as yet still not received.
The windows version of Office was given to UPS for delivery to J&R today, following their instructions for return material.
As you may also be aware you ordered a book from "BookFinders" for us (author was Boronoski) . . . I suspect you will credit my charge card for the failure to furnish it . . . but I have to wonder if Amazon might not have had another source available from whom it might have been ordered instead of just canceling the order? The book "the Ascent of Man" would be welcome, should you find a reasonable source.

I ordered MS Office 2007 from software 105 but it never came. I tried repeatedly to contact him but he never responded. After the waiting period I contacted Amazon and they are suppose to reinburse me.
MS Office October 10, 2008

This item is awesome. I bought it a few weeks ago and I am really satisfied. There is nothing wrong with it and the seller is excellent. I had the product less than one week after my command on the internet. And it is much less expensive than if I had bought it in a store. I am really glad to have it.
