Comment Micron Laptop: Must Take MS Office (Score 1) 193

Yes,

The big vendors bulk-buy Office + Windows and combine them on one CD with their own modifications. That's why its hard to separate them. My suggestions?

1 - Buy a desktop from a "local" builder and ask for Lotus / Wordperfect. It will (suprising) work out of the box unlike some well-known brands that come through our workshop. Plus, It'll be cheaper ;)

2 - Buy an OEM laptop like Twinheads etc. Unfortuneatly, most of them go broke after a few years but at lest you have a better chance of _not_ buying Microsoft.

3 - Buy a Toshiba / Dell and join the Microsoft Refund Movement ;)

Cheers /.ers
