Download Product Stinks new low

Pros: I would give it half an egg if possible. No Pros over 2010, with 2010 reinstall whenever you need to with an actual CD/DVD product in your hands.
Cons: Ok, so no CD/DVD install, you have to go through hoops to setup and account, verify this verify that. Download the product which will only work on one PC. Good luck if you want to reinstall from a virus or crashed drive. Do yourself a favor and purchase 2010 while you can. MS has a nasty habit of changing phone numbers and websites
Overall Review: I give Newegg ***** Eggs for returns by the way Returns for the product to MS direct is a nightmare, transferred 3 times from dept to dept. MS will only take returns that are mailed to them with receipts. Takes 6 to 8 weeks for a check to be mailed to you. Caution before you buy.
Office 2010 the file is currently in use try again later

Pros: Its MS Office nothing much else compares "If it worked as it should on the most basic level"
Cons: "Office 2010 the file is currently in use try again later" I am completely dissapointed that MS released an Office product that cant SAVE files properly?, Please Google the error many users are reporting in the above quotation. I continually receive the error in Word and Excel on a clean install of Win7 and Office 2010 on 3 of my machines. Of course MS technical support is blaming everybody but themselves. Turned off the AutoRecover and I still get the error (I Paid for AutoRecover it should be ON) only workaround is to SAVE AS another document type, then you get multiple saves of the same document in different sizes. Sometimes 0 bytes in size the files name is there but nothing you produced is in the document. Which has come back to haunt me on multiple occasions when I needed the information in the document but the document was empty. Never had this error in Office 2007. Rocky start for Office 2010 :(
Overall Review: I have to give it 1 star simply because such an expensive productivity product should not have such a huge significant problem that simply put "fails to make the user productive" You cant SAVE files with confidence.
