OMG, 8 different versions of Office 2007?

[TRDCorolla1]

Critics are saying that Office 2007 is by far, the most superior Office to date. Changes are very dramatic and requires a learning curve. I can't wait to get it!!!

Crap. dude. All I need is word. What is all this?!

Microsoft's gone all out nuts on this one. Never have I seen so many different Office suites. Just like the new Vista OS. Why are they coming out with so much? THey claim they are trying to meet the needs of everyone, but I think it's just a way for them to make money--buying a $500 CD (probably mainly due to licensing) when it cost only $0.50 to make.

OMG, they have all these ridiculous new features such as Groove, InfoPath, Communicator, etc. I guess it's not that ridiculous if you're running a company that needs those, but I'm going to settle for the Office 2007 Professional Edition like I've always had in the past.
