And OpenOffice ans StarOffice don't support the majority of Macros.  Macros a bits of code tha some people use to make their documents look better.  OpenOffice and StarOffice not supporting the majority of them is a really good thing though, seeing as macros are one of the most common ways of spreading viruses on the Windows OS.

OpenOffice is about 75% compatible with MS Office files.  It would be more if it weren't for the macro issue.

Oh and MS Office usually works.  But MS hardly ever listens to its customers and loves to keep bugs under wraps so that no-one knows about them.  In this way they don't fix most bugs.  Office XP still has some bugs from Office 97.

about the refund... i doubt you will get anything. According to the windows EULA, if you buy a computer with windows pre-loaded you can get a full refund if you:
1. turn on your conmputer
2. read the EULA
3. turn off your computer
4. remove windows
5. go back to the store and ask for a refund.
6. if ^that doesnt work go to microsoft for a refund
7. if ^that doesnt work sue microsoft

What a bunch of cynics on here ! As soon as I am put through to tech support (I am currently on hold-have been for 35 minutes) I am sure all this will be straightened out in no time. In fact, I am willing to bet that it is something stupid I did to cause the problem or the PC I bought is not up to snuff or I didn't insert the installation CD wearing an MS Certified polo shirt. Oh yes, it won't be long now. I am have been informed that my call is VERY IMPORTANT to them. You will see.

hoojchoons:
