*sigh* I really hope someone wasn't stupid enough to say that.
Let's face it, you'd be hard-pressed to think of any software
package out today that has no bugs (or didn't at the initial
release). Word 4.0 has added a lot of stuff and there's
definitely still bugs lingering around... And they won't
find them all til the users do.
