This product does what I expected from it, a little difficult to figure out at first.
New version will be out soon but still a good time to buy if you don't have to have the latest just the functionality.
Surprisingly usable once you get used to it. But I persevered, discoved how to use the Quick Access Toolbar to simplify the main toolbar to a usable minimum.
All I wanted was a word processing program for basic wp--what I really wanted was Word 97 all over again but couldn't find it. Replaced Word 97 with Word 2007 and it was quite a stretch.
And some other features aren't supported any more, such as opening multiple dox from the desktop. The new version is like going back to a familiar forest after 10 years and finding it overgrown and difficult to navigate.
A lot of the stuff I used constantly in 97 has been buried with what for me is a lot of useless features--like replacing simple autotext with building blocks. I could wish for more backwards compatibility (a phrase that MS probably uses as a curse) with W97 dox, but this is okay, considering it was 10 years ago.
A recommendation--if you have PATIENCE.
Pretty good, but needs to be a little better in it's icons and easier to use for us "older" students.
I like Macs but I had to get this particular software to run on Windows. It's cheaper than the business edition. It does okay.
