RIP Office 2003

| Categories: PowerPoint Over the weekend Microsoft officially pulled the plug on sales (and downloads) of Office 2003.
The lawsuit against Microsoft about the use of some XML code in Word has ended distribution of it. Bcause Word cannot be distributed and the Office suite has Word - cannot be distributed (only Word is the program in question). Here is a good summary article about the lawsuit.
Like a good movie trailer for a bad movie, the title is more appealing than the full show. Office 2003 is not really gone, just the current version. An alternate version with the questionable code removed will be in circulation, which should be identical to even the most knowledgeable Word users.
