I had forgotten how bad word was...

yesterday I was taking a history test(for whatever reason he makes us take our tests on computers running XP) and I was writing an essay and went back through and put the little cursor in the middle of a paragraph and started typing and it went over everything I had already put. after spending about a minute i was able to make it stop doing it but it wasted a piss load of time

That's why you have to make sure the "insert" isn't on.

Do I really have to provide the following address?

http://www.openoffice.org

I'm proud to say I used this package to write my Chemistry undergrad thesis.......and plan on using it when I do my Honours.

What... because he doesn't know about the Insert button, or the OVR on the bottom display of MS office products, he should switch to Open Office?

No, there are better reasons to switch to open office than that.

I HATE SHITTY SCHOOL IT DUDES. I LAID THE ONE AT MY SCHOOL OPEN WITH A BOWIE KNIFE AND THEN ATE HIS INNARDS.

oh... wait. you didn't hear that from me. and if yuo did, I said something else

i cannot believe they make peoplesit exams on a computer. that should be illegal regardless of how stable the software is.

what is the justification for gods' sake? to do a history test you should not need to know how to use software.
