Re: Laptop Questions
Well... I thought MSWorks was good because I had never heard of OpenOffice.org before. Now that I have, I agree its WAY better.

Haha, you are welcome. (j/k)

One thing that is annoying is that my printer is downstairs and my room is upstairs so when I email myself a file to print or save it to a jump drive I forget to switch the file type to .doc so I end up running back upstairs and getting it again. It gets a little annoying sometimes. My printer computer has the Office suite.
