Re: [Vo]:Nasty Microsoft
Sorry you got conned by Microsoft, Frank. Their totalitarian approach to computer software is reprehensible. If you don't switch to a Linux OS, you should at least download Libre Office, it's free and will pretty much do anything you would want in terms of a word processor, spread sheet and the rest. If you are new to Linux, I would suggest trying out Linux Mint, very user friendly and easy to install as dual boot. Or.if you want to go total paranoid, like me, you can use a live Linux CD with your hard drive unmounted whenever you are in the internet. All the crap, cookies, malware and root kits will accumulate in volatile memory until you turn off the computer and then it all just evaporates. I get a great deal of satisfaction whenever I see a "can't access your profile" notice pop up from a web site. I know the bastards have been thwarted once again.
Re: [Vo]:Nasty Microsoft
That's why I stopped using MS more than 10 years ago. Open Office works fine. If you can live with NSA supported software..( what MS does anyway since 30 years..) J.W.
