I
have posted up my review of the Microsoft Works Suite 2003 - DVD-ROM edition. Here
is a snippet from the review:
I guess there is no doubt that most of us home
users don't really need the full Microsoft Office Suite to do our work or general
letters and documents with, especially with Microsoft Office still being overpriced
and out of the reach of a lot of people. The Works Suite tries to combine what Microsoft
thinks most home users out there will need, and at a much smaller price than the
office pack. Works packs in a word processor, database, spreadsheet, appointment
and calendar options all in to one easy to use interface called the Task Launcher.
Most of these programs are cut down versions of ones from the Office Suite, like
the spreadsheet program is a lesser version of Microsoft Excel, it can open Excel
worksheets but not workbooks, but that isn't to say it doesn't do the job, it does
and does it well.
