[nfbcs] Is it Possible to Put Office 2003 On Windows 7, and Is It a Bad Idea

[Nicole Torcolini]

	Ugh, okay. It sounds as though this is theoretically possible but
often does not work. Given that I need my computer to work reliably, I think
that I will pass, even though I absolutely hate the ribbon.
	On a related note, does anyone know of an accessible, doc/docx
capable editor that uses the traditional menu bar? I know that there are
some out there, but I just don't know which ones are accessible.

Thanks,
Nicole

Well I installed office 2003 on my windows 7 machine and personally have had
nothing but problems. When I try to bring up spell check, it freezes and I
also can't bring up the file menu lol.
