Geez, you guys. If someone is used to authoring in Word, the LAST thing
they want to hear is a chorus of anti-Microsoft bigots yelling "don't use
Word" at them.
Deciding what he wants and doesn't want to hear is his prerogarive, not yours.
Kindly don't put words in someone else's mouth.
I'll also note that I listed several options, only one of which was to not use
Turd. What's more, Steffan and Adrian both recommended alternatives (Wordpad
and Notepad, respectively) THAT ARE ALSO BY MICROSOFT. Who (if anyone) is the
bigot here?
Uh, Gary? When you refer to a product as "M$ Turd" ... then you are the
bigot. You.
(I speak, incidentally, as someone who does not write in MS Word.)
