Oh, I see Word 2003 lock up now and then.  So far, it has always been after
I save and try to exit.  Knock on wood.

I've yet to have any problems in any Office 2003 applications.  If you
know what the hell you're doing with a computer, it is incredibly rare
for anything to ever fail.  If you have your computer loaded with a
bunch of idiotic junkware as indicated by the 400 icons you see in your
system tray, you should expect things to fail.  Anyone can write a
program that hooks into events in Microsoft applications and causes them
to fail.  This is not Microsoft's fault.  If you've ever run a purely
Microsoft machine, you'll see that it is ridiculously rare that they
fail.  I have NEVER seen any software out there that crashes less than
Microsoft's and is anywhere even remotely close to being as powerful as
a comparable Microsoft application.
