Thanks but would you believe I'm still with Office 2003? Anything to
avoid them and MS is still supporting with security updates.
Yay!

Hi Marie,
To say it as nicely as possible, ribbons suck! LOL LOL
There is a little program called UBit that helps navigating the ribbons a
little easier for Office 2007 & 2010 but, so far I haven't got it figured
out for Office 2010. Below is the info:
Below is the website link & information for the UBitMenu /
SmallRibbonCorrector program. There is a download link for the program on
the page as well.

I feel about ribbons the way you feel about XP.
The thing about ribbons is that they're even a nuisance for the sighted
never mind the blind.
Why is it necessary to add layer up on layer of key strokes or clicks
when efficiency is measured by less not more.

Hurray! At least I'm not the only one who is happy with XP and has no
plans to upgrade to Windows 7 or 8 as long as my computer still works
and does everything I need it to do. Millions of people will continue
to use XP well after support for it ends in April, despite the
overblown media hype about hacker attacks, and I intend to be one of
them. I'm the kind of guy who gets aggravated and frustrated easily,
and buying a new computer with Windows 7 or 8 sounds like a recipe for
aggravation.

Below are my opinions.
Don't switch to Windows 7. It's just a big hastle. I've had a Windows
7 machine for two months, and I still don't use it regularly. Keep
getting automatic updates if you must, but I believe that the XP
security risks are hiped by Microsoft to try to push people toward
more modern, bloated operating systems.
From my experience, you will see all sorts of error messages when
trying to instal your favorite programs to Windows 7. Some programs
you use every day will no longer work, some not even in compatibility
mode.
It seems to me that Windows 7 was not made for a power user but
radically simplified and coolized to simplify the computer at the
expense of efficiency.
For all around grunt work (sound management, music ripping, document
editing, PDF viewing), I'll put XP against Windows 7 any day.
