Already pointed this out to Sam, but thought I'd post here too. I got Word 2007 today, and OH MY SCIENCE it's fantastic. I've managed to write almost all of my essay in a single day, the maths typer thing is superb. The only problem I've encountered is a sarcastic spellchecker who seems to want to belittle my choice of essay topic. Here are three words that have been autocorrected for me today: Mereotopology --> Mere Topology (Hey, shut up...) Mustn't be a fan of formal logic. Anyone got any hilarious Word autocorrects to share? All comments published win £10 and a Letterbocks pencil. |

I saw a homeless guy trying to use word, on his supercomputer, in his mansion, in Hawaii. Do I win £10? |

Forum post of the week, my cat tree fag cheese. Does anyone even use word anymore? I don't even have it on my computer. Go latex and wordpad. |

I rather like OpenOffice Writer. It does the same basic job as Word, but costs no money and is less liable to make "executive decisions" on one's behalf. I like my word processors to shut up and do as they're told. |

I had Ferrers diagram -> Ferrets diagram and k-gonal -> k-gonad (with the TeXnic Center spellchecker). |
