Ask Download Squad: What's the first thing you install on your computer? (Download Squad)
Aug 20th 2005 4:27PM Anti-virus - I use McAfee Viruscan Enterprise - then immediately update Firewall - Free ZoneAlarm Microsoft Office All Microsoft Updates (I install Microsoft Update as it allows me to update Windows and Office at the same time) AdAware Spybot Search and Destroy Quicktime RealPlayer Adobe Reader 7 WinZip or similar Nero or EasyCDCreator This is what I consider a nice baseline config.
Ask Download Squad: What's the best alternative to Microsoft Office? (Download Squad)
Jul 22nd 2005 1:49PM I think Office is going to stay, as some have said, it's precey and quirky and even buggy, but it's the best (so far) and the de facto standard. Some individual apps in other suites may be better, but as a whole Office wins. As for which version, I think there was a big improvement in stability from 97 to 2000. Then XP was forgettable, and 2003 is just prettier. However, as far as people buy that line, its going to be hard to stop the upgrade disease unless you force a whole corporation to stop at Office 2000 or so...
