im just wondering why UP is cutting costs where in fact, they are not the paying for it anyways.. since most of its expenditures are coming from government funds, and also, with regards to office 97 to office 2k upgrades, my question is this?? have you fully utilized the features of office 97?? to the point that the features of office97 cannot fit to your needs?? the point is.. most people are driven by the hype of buying new software.. the flip side is.. have they ever utilized the feature of the old version. one more thing.. Is Mr. Nemenzo aware of the different licensing options offered by micrsoft to educational institutions?? another, do they know the the impact of their shift from microsoft office to staroffice impacts their students capacity to meet the demands of the corporate world. just imagine it would take quite some time for you to teach a medical student or accounting student to do a print merge in microsoft office, to the point that they go on memorizing every step, now imagine what would happen when what they are memorizing is no longer their because of a chance in office product out goes what u have learned.
