My roommate and I have Office 2007. I love using Calibri and our other project member has 2k3 only, so he converted my wonderful decorations into plain old boring Times New Roman.
Pet peeve of the moment

I've gotten so fed up with office 07 that I've gone to OpenOffice.
I've gotten so fed up with Vista that I'm either going to learn open source or track down a cheap copy of XP. If I go back to XP I'll probably get 2k3 back again, if I go ubuntu I'll try to be a nerd and just stick with the free shit.

I can't see how there is so much hate. All but one or two functions in Word 2007 I found very quickly for the first time. So I don't understand how some people have such a hard time with it. I bet it's a joy in the workplace to have most people have no clue what to do since their beloved Word was changed. The interface is FAR FAR better in 2007.
I started using 2007 4-5 months before my school got it, so I had the same problems with group projects. But I thought I recall that typing a document with Calibri and saving in the 2003 format, that loading it in 2003 would keep the font (as if its embedded in the .doc or something) fine. Now at least most people have 2007, except people with their damn Macs and Linux machines. And don't get me started on OpenOffice...

or simply not upgrading to it
my company just and i mean JUST in the last 4 months upgraded from 97 to 2K3, so im prob save for like another decade
If it only cost me $10 to upgrade, legally, from Office 2003 to Office 2007 (The Full spiel) should I do it, or is it that bad.

Very few companies will use something instead of an Office product and even if you work in one that does, odds are you will be dealing with other clients who do use Office so you will benefit from being familiar with it anyways. You can also hold off for as long as possible to upgrade but most do not wait that long either.
In the end, most people would benefit from learning how to use 2007 whether they choose to do that while at work or at home. You can only gain by learning it considering how many companies use Office and will eventually upgrade to 2007.
