Goodbye Microsoft Office 2003 !

[anandk]

After June 30, 2007, OEM Microsoft Office 2003 will no longer be available from Microsoft.



Some authorized OEM Microsoft distributors may have some remaining inventory left for a short time after June 30th; however, Microsoft will no longer be shipping OEM Microsoft Office to them.

Ahh , Office 2003 will be on my machine for a long time . it will take time to get used to the new interface of Office 2007. So staying away from it for a while.

[rakeshishere]

Duhh...I mistakenly thought it was Office XP ...Its that very old Office 2003 which i have rarely used ..Hope Everyone just starts using Office 2k7

Hallelujah means Glory to God in Christianity. Just a sort of wisecrack in this context.

[i_am_crack]

Office 2007 is just resource cloging i suppose. Please correct me if i am wrong...

[ax3]

am still using Office XP or Office 2003 ...........

bt am quite satisfied with it ............

hope i get my hands on Office 2k7 ............ as everybody has it .........

I had a free trial copy of MS Office 2007, could not use it a day, replaced with my fav Office 2003.

I do not like to use the mouse when I use MS Excel, it reduces the speed with which one works.

Just in case this was aimed at me, I know what it means and what context I've used it in...

otherwise its cool

[rakeshishere]

@hailgautam
It takes some time to learn the new features,settings,working etc of Office 2k7..but its seriously way better than the earlier versions

@i_am_crack
The Minimum RAM requirement is 256MB and i have tested it on a machine with this requirement..It just runs fine with a medium pace except for LIVE PREVIEW feature which is a bit slow

[ilugd]

goobimama? Did I say something offensive? It seemed to me that you was a sarcastic way of saying that you were thankful. Anyways, I was explaining to the other guy what alleluya meant. I work in a church, you know. Hear a lot of this.

[gaurav_indian]

I am still using Office XP.

[goobimama]

No no no. Nothing offensive. All cool. Nothing wrong. I don't take things personal here.

FWIW, even gobi is not aaloo.

And I, being his "feathered friend", am all too accustomed to him using strange words out of context.

BTW, the tangentially off-topic nature of this discussion gives me some idea about how insignificant the demise of Office 2003 is. After all, Office 2007 is much better.

Good one Aayush....Laughing Out Loud!

In my language (konkani) Aloo is known as Bataat....so yeah, I'm not good at Hindi.

[aryayush]

Oh, you are quite OK. We talked in hindi that day and you were speaking well.
