I hate Microsoft Word. It is buggy, ugly, clunky, slow, lacking in features, lacking in standards compliance and massively overpriced. Why, when others could do it more than 20 years ago, can you not even drag a picture to where you want it to be?
I use it solely for compatibility with others, which is why I am currently using it to coauthor a book. I estimate its bugs and failings cost me an average of an hour or two a day at the moment.
This error message sums it up for me:
If you cannot read this, it says ‘The document “crowdbookdraftjd.docx” could not be opened. Word cannot open files in the “Microsoft Word Document” format.’
Sigh.
