Remember Vista? My PC is still running Vista. I use it these days as a word processor only, with no internet connection. And even as a word processor it does goofy things.

I’ve thought about moving on to a newer PC, but I’m told that now I can only rent Microsoft Word. On my Vista I own it.

So I’m sticking with my Vista. And with my old, paid-for car, too.

LibreOffice can open, read, and write to Office file formats.

Now's a good time to convert, and get rid of that Vista altogether.

The last time I looked(last fall) you could still by a 3 year old version of office from the M.S. store

If you use MS Office you can use Libreoffice. And files are compatible between the two.

If you want to test it out and play with it then it is free to download. And they make windows versions both 32 bit and 64 bit.

If you like it, it is pretty much a standard app that comes preinstalled in almost all popular Linux distros to replace MS office.

Horrible OS! I remember there being a batch script that would “convert” Windows Server 2008 into a semi-Vista box. I ran with that for a while.

I got Microsoft certified in Vista... SMH
