I have just upgraded to Office 2007 but find myself still using 2003 Pro.
Why? It's just that good. The layout is by far the best out of all the office products, and the menu driven system allows you to create very professional work with little input. There are even templates and wizards to help you along the way. All the major office programs are here except FrontPage, which most people wouldn't use anyway, unless into web design.
Overall, I have given it 5 stars as it is the best value for money as well as being a very complete office package.
Mummy - This is Rubbish! This is what my daughter said to me when we put this on! I am so glad it was a present and I didn't waste any money on this. My daughter is 2 yrs and this was far too babyish for her even though it is meant for 1.5 - 3 yrs. It is very limited and we finished it in under an hour. The animations are repeated on the different screens, so if you see the Elephant on one screen, he sings the same song in the abc screen, the numbers screen, etc and it is really boring. The font used for the ABC learning is a 'comic' shaped font, so it would be hard for a child to recognise the actual shape of a letter. And a lot of the animations didn't make sense anyway. All this after I had to download the patch from the makers website ... Read More:

I bought this primarilly to copy my large collection of music across several DVDs (something it claims to do). However it crashes when I import lots of files.
No updates, seemingly total lack of any reponse from support. I would avoid this software like the plague.

It's a fantastic product, but to make it work well and for your site to look and feel really good and a little bit individual, you have to know your way around the internet and computers in general. It's not totally user friendly if you are not used to working outside the Microsoft environment, although the whole thing is pretty intuitive to a relatively seasoned pc/mac user. I love it and think for the price, it's a must for a web presence for personal or not-for-profit orgs or those just setting up in biz. My only gripe is with the page shuffle feature - you have to mend broken links manually. (You can also use commercial web design software to make your website and then just upload to MrSite if you are really worried about losing a previous version)

never write reviews on products I buy over the interweb but this game is GREAT!!!! I played Road to Hill 30 and was gripped by the first few levels, without the intros in the game it wouldnt have the same effect,
The gameplay is great leading yet another bad ass squad through battle runied Normany during WWII, with enemies that are more intellgent it's harder than the 1st game!! Use as mush cover as possilbe when need be and flank when you can.
Intense gameplay and amazing grpahics this is a deffinate must have if you want to know the movements of the rest of Bakers Squad!!! It's a complete follow on it links to WWII extremelly well, just wait till Hells Highway is out, thats going to be even better!!
Everywhere I read so called `advanced users' saying `if it ain't broke, don't fix it', and complaining how traumatic it has been to upgrade from the oh so user friendly Office 2003 to this. Come on now. If you are really such an advanced user, spend an hour enjoying familiarising yourself with the new software rather than writing a review slating it. If you are a less advanced user then I take your point more seriously, but given time I'm sure you will find yourself benefiting hugely.
If you take a step back, you see how awful the interface for Office had become. It worked ok back in 1994 when there were fewer features, but just bunching the icons up at the top was completely inappropriate for an application of this size. When I speak to new users ... Read More:

As a small buisness owner myself - this product arrived with interest!
At first gance all the key areas are here for anyone wishing to manage & operate their accounts - invoicing, estimating and bank reconciliation - are pretty well covered. You can also create invoices through a hyperlink on the homepage and email both estimates and invoices as PDF attachments.
Reporting wise we have again all the usual suspects including a trial balance and ad hoc reports such as "total sales per customer". Interstingly (and a hint towards the target market) - the language used is in very plain English without any accountancy-speak - quite a useful feature for a one man business wishing to comply and comprehend, purely the basics!
