[QUOTE="technologist, post: 126073, member: 4134"] I don't know about "scum," but I can't stand people who don't pay for the stuff they use. If Office is worth the $150 (etc.) to you, then buy it. If you can't afford the $150, don't use it. If you need it, then you need it, and you either find the money or find another pursuit. As for word processing, there are dozens of ways to do it.
