Works Suite 2006 okay [Posted on 2007-05-21]
The only drawback I see for this suite is the Word 2002. I get errors with Vista Home Premium where the program will stop responding and give me an error telling me to upgrade to fix the error. If Word 2007 was cheaper, I would have went with 2007 to begin with! Unfortunately, had to settle for Word 2002 and need to restart Word occacially. Make sure you set up the auto save for every 1 minute!

Good Product [Posted on 2007-07-14]
Good product for what it is, but I hardly ever use it these days -- opting for Microsoft office...

Depends on how interested you are in the Word program [Posted on 2007-09-07]
I bought this because I needed a new copy of Word. Since Word is always bundled with other programs I chose this one for the price. However, I did not know there would not be a Word 2006 in the pkg. I later learned that Word did not have a new and improved version in 2006. However, this version was Word 2002! What a drag! It is older than the version I had on my system which had become defective. Now I need to buy another version.

A great product [Posted on 2008-03-15]
I am very satisfied with Microsoft Works. I purchased it for Microsoft Word. Well worth the money.

Microsoft Works CD [Posted on 2008-04-03]
I got the CD in the mail in a timely fashion. When I put it into my CD drive, nothing happened. I ended up called a Mircosoft suppport line for help which cost me another $50. They informed me that the CD was probably bad. I went to Circuit City, purchased a new CD and it worked fine. I spend $100 between Amazon and the Microsoft support line and got nothing to show for it.

Would I use Amazon again? Yes but not to purchase software.
