HELP WITH STUPID MICROSOFT!

Well, I ranted last week on how STUPID MICROSOFT IS and got more comments than usual. So I am turning to my faithful blog readers for HELP! First, let me get this off my chest: I HATE THE NEW OFFICE!!! It’s stupidity just keeps showing up. This one, I can not solve.

I went to save a document and the default is this lame .docx which means that if I need to send the file to anyone who hasn’t upgraded they won’t be able to open it. HOW DUMB IS THAT? So now every time I save a document I have to manually ask to save it as a…
