Ohhhh yeah...I remember now

Why I hate Word. I've been using Open Office at home, but I have to use Word at work. And I don't like either of them, really. But Word is by far the worst. It isn't so bad until you attempt to use the stupid grammer corrector thing. Which doesn't work. Well, it's not so much that it doesn't work, but that it gives you stupid suggestions that make no sense.

MS Word would get a 2 out of 5 in my book because the only think really useful about it is that you can type up things with it and it has a decent dictionary.

Open Office would get a 3 out of 5. It doesn't have the annoyingly pathetic grammer editor, but it does have the WORST DICTIONARY EVER. Really? You don't know what a movie is? Or a mom? Seriously?

Apple's Pages is still the best word processor I have ever used period. Easy-one click note writer lets you make notes and comments to yourself in the margines. You can also have people edit your story or whatever in different colors, which is awesome. The Proofreader actually READS the paragraphs and sentences and points out actual grammatical errors instead of the nonsense Word does. And now, with Pages '09's "Full Screen Mode" you can turn on iTunes, and just sit there and write or read without anything else to distract you. Seriously, Pages gets a big ol' 5 out of 5 in my opinion.

Tried KWord or Abiword?

tried Abiword...for about 3 seconds. It was worst than OpenOffice. I would randomly underline words and phrases reguardless if they were right or not. I would sometimes open up a document and have words garbled and it's dictionary and proofreader both suck.

I'm guessing it doesn't know what a "grammer" is, either.

Oh okay, now I understand that you're a moron.

Hey, don't be coming into my thread and start calling me a moron and shit just because I prefer a Mac product over any other. I like it because it actually fucking works unlike the others. I mean, if you had to choose between an a brand new car that didn't start for whatever reason and a new car that actually started, you'd get the one that actually works. It's simply logic. I'm sorry if using logic makes me a moron, but, it does, indeed take one to know one.

Except non-Apple products actually work, too. So in this case you're trying to sound superior for choosing an Apple product while calling everyone else morons. You probably should have stuck with the "prefer Mac" statement.

Word works well enough for me, must be low expectations.

I'm not trying to sound superior. I'm just saying that I prefer Pages and I wasn't calling anyone morons, that was Nollix. I think you completely misunderstood what I was saying.

I mean these are MY OPINIONS. If you get your undies in a knot over my or someone else's opinion, it's you're own problem.
