In The Pink

Ok, at first I thought it was new and logical, but the Microsoft Office that comes with it is a pain in the butt. So actually I guess I don't hate Windows 7, I hate Microsoft Office version whatever! I have spent some years now learning how to use Excel, Word, Powerpoint and Access to some proficiency. Now however, although I know how to use everything I can't find it!
