Pogue on the new Microsoft Office
David Pogue writes about the new Microsoft Office. From Purging Bloat to Fashion Sleek Software:
You no longer have to spend 20 minutes hunting through menus for Page Numbering or whatever. It’s all right there on the Ribbon. What was once buried four layers deep is now arrayed before you in a big software smorgasbord.
...but on the other hand,...
You’re stuck with the tabs Microsoft gives you. You can’t rearrange them or hide the ones you never use. Even if you never create form letters or write academic dissertations, the Mailings and References tabs will be there on the Ribbon forever, wasting space.
