It is surprising that after being a power user and an expert in Linux, you still have a Windows partition in your system and it is used too. If linux experts ( I mean all experts) find Windows crappy, then why do they still have the partition in their systems?
This is called jumping to assumptions, and reflects sloppy thinking.
My wife does not use my machines; she has machines at the work that the university has assigned to her.
You should hear how often word screw up formatting for stuff send by other word users who are using differet versions of word.
A few years ago, I recollect upgrading my OOo to the latest version and a .doc file created in the earlier OO got its columns messed up in the latest version.
Years ago, eh? I find word messes up formats to this day.
