    They also have these great things called "pens" and "paper" to track workouts.

      You could always 'get' Excel


      I dont have money to buy it, and why bother obtaining something ilegaly when something free works just as well.

                    Friends don't let friends pirate Microsoft software.

                    Microsoft Office has an awful default interface. The paradigms are old and stale. OpenOffice isn't revolutionary, but it has some nice touches.

                      That interface has been around for at least a decade.

                        The adaptive toolbars might actually be worth something if the actions I pull up menus and secondary toolbars for were being added to them. They aren't.

                          OpenOffice will mail you a CD, iirc. Might arrive before the 56kb d/l is finished.

                            Count your blessings. At least you don't have to compile the thing.

                              What's the main problem with the default paradigms?

                              OpenOffice is noticably worse IMO. Borderline "terrible".

                                OOo is slow as hell, no kind of recovery mechanism if something dies (MS Word has saved my arse a number of times )... it's poorly thought out. About the only thing going for it feature wise is the PDF thing which is a nice touch.

                                Also it's free so if you can't afford MS Office it's not like there isn't an alternative, but it's a poor second in terms of quality. Is Office ~£80 better? Debateable... considering price they're pretty much even I suppose.
