Office 365 and Google Docs
I'll just say that I've not investigated either of these, because my impression is that to use them you have to have an open connection to the internet. That's just my impression, and it may be wrong, and there is some way to use it offline. Can anyone tell me if my impression is correct? I use Libre Office at home, and like it a lot better than office 2007 and 2010.
As far as Linux goes, I've made the decision that I'll not go to any flavor of Windows 8, as I find it to be completely horrible. I'm not a 5 year old that needs big blocks in primary colors to find my way around. When it comes time to replace my laptop, I'll search around and see if I can find one already built with some flavor of Linux. That's kind of hard to find around here, but I should be able to order one.
