...but wait, you just did. At my previous work we actually had to downgrade everyone to Office 2003. Excel 2007 is especially bad. You cannot make a chart with more than ~1000 points without severe degradation in perfomance. The file sizes are huge. And that stupid ribbon!!!! I like my options always to be in the same places - I do not want to guess where Microsoft thinks the best place for them is.

Also, I built a new PC a few months ago with Windows 7 - and now I am almost ready to go back to XP.
