i can't get used to that damn ribbon. I think that just as Vista was a step
backward to XP, Office 2007 is a step backwards to Office 2003. I'm talking
in terms of users trying to get their work done and earn a paycheck. From a
technical perspective, i understand the improvements, security, etc, etc.
But most users don't care about that. Either it helps them do their jobs
easier and faster or it doesn't. Office 2007 slows them down.
