Microsoft Word 2002 [OLD VERSION] | Software Reviews

There is nothing redeeming about this new version of Word. Ok, sure, they have a few nice changes here and there, but overall, this is nothing but a cheap update that is not-so-cheap on the checkbook. I don’t know how Microsoft can get away with charging that much for basically doing nothing but “patching” a previous version.If you absolutely HAVE to have this product, I’d try to somehow obtain it through your employer’s checkbook as a work-related write off. If you’re unable to do that, just stick with Word 2000 or 1997. Most people don’t notice the differences anyway, and most people just use it to write basic letters, memos, etc. If that’s all you’re doing, you don’t need this. And unless you want to blow the price listed above, you don’t need it either. You’ll have much more fun and get much more satisfaction in taking those 3 Ben Franklin’s and setting fire to them.

They still can’t get it right. You would think that a company as rich as Microsoft could figure out how to implement a word processor. But alas, it seems that after 10 years or so they still can’t come up with industrial strength code. MS Word is fine if you want to type a three page memo or a letter to grandma but if you really want to write a lot of documentation it is a lot of trouble. Word tends to do what it wants with out explaining why or letting you get a word in edgewise. There have been many times when I have spent as much time getting the section numbering and formatting correct as I have in writing the document. For the most part the features are poorly implemented and confusing … I don’t have nearly enough space to list all of its problems but lets just say the only reason I’m using it is because it is the standard word processor for my company. I write large (200+ page) documents on a regular basis and have done so for many years. MS Word has always been painful to use and it never seems to get better. And to top it off, my copy has crashed three times so far today (it is 9:30 am), all times when I wasn’t even touching the keyboard or mouse. At least these days it doesn’t take down the operating system with it. I guess that counts as a major improvement for Microsoft software.
