[QUOTE="EndlessMac, post: 1035982, member: 140470"] Yes, I know. Trying to get Windows users to try them out is an uphill battle especially if they are not that good with computers. :) What I have noticed is that when a feature is either built in or preinstalled then people tend to use it more often. Just look at how many Windows users still use IE and will not try another web browser. ;) The biggest problems I have with Microsoft Office files comes up when I want to edit or collaborate with others. Simply opening and reading the files is usually not a problem but when I start editing and making other changes and then sending it back for them to edit is were the problems starts to show itself. All the formatting and other fancy features in Office don't allows translate exactly back and forth. I'm using the Mac Office version also. [/QUOTE]
