Hi! - and surely we can forgo a huge debate on this thread...
I - on the other hand - and here's my two bob's worth - find Office 
2007 a delight to work with. Some changes take some getting used to; 
creating headers/footers is more 'optioned' and clumsy, and Access 
feels like it's attempting to clone filemaker, but overall it's a 
great package. And, we can always save/share in the older program formats.
But...I will reserve judgement on Vista until after the impending 
release of service pack 1.
Cheers
RA
