      I thought office 2003 was when it started going downhill. I preferred the UI from 2000 and prior, then suddenly it was like they were trying to hide everything from me

        I heard a Microsoft engineer talking about that. “Intellimenus” they called it. Where, you clicked the Format menu and it was 56,004 entries long. So they compacted them, hid some options unless you further expanded the menu. Which is ALL the way wrongheaded.

          When I still used MS office, most of my time using them was spent looking for the tools that I needed because they were so damn hard to find, and every major update moves them to a different fucking spot.
