Thanks for ideas here... Setting up my roady laptop to be independent of my home workstation for xtended lengths of time. Means updating and cramming in everything I use, or *might* use.. 500g drv, Win7U, I7, 12g. abt to do a hard drv swap w/2t SSD, so a lot to catch up on. I haven't needed business stuff for a 5 yr stretch, and now I do. So the Dell beast is now on the operating table for transplants and new versatility.
The 2016 Office info settles that for me. I want stable. I just can't justify staying back with 2003, file compatibility, etc. Gotta stay w/MS cause I have many past years of heavy use in some IT related areas. Dang, the laptop is stuck in 2013ish, all software setups same era. Gotta upgrade my ACAD11, Adobe crap, Engineering progs and audio/vid editors, utilities, ugh. But obviously, a lot doesn't have to be messed with.
I'll start with MSO 2016... Thanks!
