Comments from some of those that selected Word as one of their Top Tools 

• “Microsoft Office is still a staple in my work. I use Word and PowerPoint often and Excel and Outlook less so. I have a ton of documents and spreadsheets ‘in the cloud’ but still find my desktop a better place for non-collaborate writing projects that are still works-in-progress”. Janet Clarey
• “outlining and writing. I write by outlines, and I’ve used Word since I bought a Mac II to write my PhD thesis on (now, if Pages had outlining…)”  Clark Quinn
• “I spend much of my time working in Word. The tracked changes and compare functionality took a little while to work out but I now find it indispensable. Storyboards and design documents always go through many revisions and Word helps me keep track of them all.”  Rob Hubbard
• “Although, I use GoogleDocs more frequently, I still prefer to do most of my writing using Microsoft Word. However, you never know in the future, as these online processors continue to evolve and the Internet becomes easier to access.”  Zaid Algasof
• “Depending on the project requirement, I use either Microsoft Word or Powerpoint for developing the storyboards for e-learning courses. I am impressed with the look and feel of Microsoft Office 2007.” Sathish Narayanan
• “I can’t imagine my work without Word, Excel and PowerPoint”  Jorge Goncalves
