The Mother hates her word processor. Granted, she is using the free version of Microsoft Word that came with windows seven when she updated. If that was what I had to use, I would hate it, too. I replaced it with OpenOffice because it does the kinds of things I need it to do. As a writer, I use several bells and whistles.
I think that OpenOffice would be even more annoying for Her than the one she has. It needs to be simpler and less cluttered. I suggested wordpad, but it still doesn't meet her needs.
I will be testing various Word Processors for Her.
This is the one I am testing this week. http://www.jarte.com/ it is based on Microsoft's Wordpad engine and retains some of that simplicity. It has a little bit more to it, though. I will slowly review it over the next few weeks and let you know what I think.
You are welcome to watch me wrestle with questions, participate in a discussion, or smile since you've already figured it out.
