Omigosh! I just bought a new laptop last week with Vista and Office 2007 on it. Having never used either of them (my old computer had Windows XP and Office 2003 - I was really in a panic. My daughter said I'd be fine, 2007 was great and I would learn it by just working with it. I didn't believe her so I ordered, Teach Yourself Visually, for both of them and by the time the books arrived, I was quite comfortable with the new stuff, although I wasn't trying anything new and different. Now, if and when something does happen, I will feel safer having the books at my fingertips. All is well that ends well. Karen T.
