The interface is completely changed. Auto-formatting of captions and citations is hopelessly broken and non-functional. Styles do not stay – Word reverts to default no matter how many times you change it. Randomly reformats document to new text/spacing/alignment. Text flow around images hopeless broken and non-functional.

Basically – it all looks different, nothing works, and there appears to be no hope if getting it fixed any time soon. Save your money and sanity, buy an older version such as 2003, download the free converter so you can read documents from people who have unfortunately “upgraded” to 2007, and wait until the next release. Or two. Or three. Or for a competitor to come out with a functional word processor.

Basically – this is the most useless suite of applications I’ve ever had the misfortune of owning. Avoid it.

I didn’t expect a lot at this price and after my last cheap hoover which I used only a few times before giving to goodwill, I bought this purely on reviews.
CONS:
~It’s the LOUDEST vacuum I’ve ever owned. My ears ring after every use, I need to buy earplugs.
~Rattley, plastic and cheap, you are pushing around a load of rattley plastic..just feels so cheap.
~Hose is almost worthless. Kinked with first use, exceptionally poor quality, thin, short and needs replacement pronto.
~Does a terrible job on tile. Spits stuff everywhere. This is a shame, my house is 90% tile. I now have to use the cheap hose on the tile to pick up all the stuff not picked up but spit everywhere.
~Way too chunky, big and awkward to get under anything. Out comes that darn hose constantly…

PROS:
~Pretty blue color.
~Cheap price which is all I could do right now.
~Works great on my big rugs.
~I like “bagged” vacuums better than “bagless”, much less mess and easier for me to use so this is a pro.
~Pretty good suction although took the corners of many rugs and instantly caught them up inside..be careful.
~Hose, albeit cheap and kinks easily, has lots of power..TOO much..(pro or con here?) and sucks small rugs up so tightly you have to yank to get them off. There has to be a happy medium here with this darn hose. It works great in corners and stuff, however, because of the power. Just doesn’t reach far….

This book takes place back and forth from the great depression / present day. I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the characters. I became so wrapped up in this book I had to tell all of my friends to read it and they more or less all agree with me when I say this was a great love story.

Well, it’s a classic. It’s a relatively quick read, and for some reason I was surprised by how much I liked it. It didn’t really ’speak’ to me as it might have done if I’d read it when I was younger, but I enjoyed the story and the narrative style. It’s amusing to have the narrator obviously exaggerate and lie to you for his own ego.

If you’re a teenager (maybe an older teenager, now that I think about it – particularly males) or an adult who never read this, pick it up and give it a shot. Worst case is that you’ll be a bit bored for a few hours. More likely you’ll both enjoy it and be enriched by it at the same time.

I picked up a copy of Twilight ’cause all my friends were reading it and they said it was good. I found it to be extremely strange. I mean, what kind of boyfriend watches you sleep at night? If he’s supposed to be manly, he shouldn’t sparkle in the sun. The main character, Bella, is oddly flawless. Overall, the plot was just odd, and the author obviously has no idea how to write.

Some people may like Twilight, and that’s fine. But I suggest you pick up a copy at the library before you spend money on it.

My mother-in-law is in her 80’s so I try to help out where I can. A while back I offered to vacuum her place. She had a bagless dirt devil that she was unable to use due to limited mobility in one of her hands. The cup that held the dirt was even hard for me to change without significant effort. We bought her the Hoover Tempo U5140-900 upright and solved her problem. Yes, she again has to change a bag once in a while, but at least she can use it. It is light weight and easy to use. The price was very economical too. She has regained a little measure of independence.

It is accurate, repeatable and steady. It also looks nice. But it does not seem to work properly for light weighing objects. It is suitable only to measure body weight.
