from Office 97
Maybe MS have some other problems, it makes one wonder ...
Definitely. They see the single biggest competitor to Office 2003 to be --
Office 2000! Their main problem is, they haven't offered anything new that
"real people" care about in at least that long. The only benefits to Office
2000 over earlier 95/97 versions is a newer build of VBA. So even corps
don't see any reason to update.
What's their answer? Break stuff! Just wait til you see the "interface" in
the next version. Yikes.
