For me it is a valid comparison. If you need all the extra functionality, then please
use
it and I really hope you are happy with it. The jungle of menu options that are in the
new
version (I know someone that uses it), with options jumping from the used to unused
sides
of the menu, are boggling me.
Please understand that all opinions that I vent are mine. (Of course, for a small
contribution they can be yours too ;-)
Use what you need. If that means keeping up with the latest standards that Microsoft
imposes on its software, so mote it be.
Paul
