Office 2003, in my opinion, is really the last good version of Microsoft's Office suite. It doesn't have the ribbon, or any of the fancy online features Office 2010 and newer do. Plus it has unlimited activations - no limited installation antics that Microsoft implemented into Office 2010 and newer. I love Office 2003 and older because they just work. Nothing to fiddle around with. Sure, you might have to tinker slightly when running the programs on newer versions of Windows (the EULA popping up every time you start an Office program was known to Microsoft, and it even persisted in Office 2010, however that can be fixed by running each program as administrator and accepting) but otherwise it's caused me zero problems. The only downside to using an Office version this old is that Outlook 2003 doesn't support the necessary security protocols (TLS & STARTTLS) to securely connect to modern email servers that don't support using SSL anymore, such as Microsoft's own Outlook email service... which is embarrassing for them to say the least. If anyone else finds a copy of Office 2003 or older for cheap, pick it up! These older versions are great for work, even in 2019. Since the original .doc, .xls, and .ppt formats are still supported in Microsoft Office 2019 / Office 365, no-one should give you grief. As for what I recommend? Office 2003, Office XP (2002), or Office 2000 at the very least. Make sure you pick up a decent enough version - look up the version list for 2003, XP or 2000 on Wikipedia before you buy!Read full review
