Yup, I may think about making that part of the requirement.
Let's see how downloading the compatibility pack goes.

>> Hi, all.

>> I just wanted to update everyone who might be interested on my continuing
>> saga with Office 2007.
>>
>> I just got off the phone with the University's Tech Support people. ...
>> My
>> initial reason for calling was to ask them to put Office 2003 back on the
>> University's laptop computer.
>>
>> They told me that they hated to do that, since the entire university,
>> including the computer labs the students will be using, are switching to
>> Office 2007 this summer.
>>
>> So, if I go back to Office 2003, I won't be able to read any of the
>> documents students send me on Office 2007 machines at the University.
>>
>> So, it now looks like I'm stuck with Office 2007, at least on the
>> University
>> computers.
>>
>> Still haven't heard from Freedom Scientific yet.
>>
>> Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to deal with this, other than
>> some nice strong tranquilizers?
