Testing if Microsoft Office worked, dad just bought me a key and all. I had fun with it's programs. Apparently it did, I'm happy.

@beatstrings I honestly don't see the use of Microsoft Office considering that Google Drive is a thing

@thewaifutyphoon Well, it's my tradition, plus the campus told me that they would rewire the wi-fi, meaning I have to rely in offline applications for about a month or two.

@beatstrings Google Drive is offline compatible.

@thewaifutyphoon Thanks Ross, never knew that. I should be on the internet more.

@thewaifutyphoon Thanks, will do that later, working on 50 layers and counting.

@thewaifutyphoon Oh, and another thing, many, I mean 90% of Filipinos don't know google drive nor ever heard of it, that includes my professors, my classmates and my parents. So... there, I think it's reasonable having this.

@beatstrings I never said it was reasonable, just that there's a free suite that rivals Office 9 times out of 10, so there's no real need for MO anymore
Thursday, 03-Jul-14 16:30:16 UTC from web-
@thewaifutyphoon Oh, no I'm not blaming you at all, I'm just really trying to explain environments, since I rarely talk about myself. And since MO is going in decline, well, time to move on.

@spint for the average student, not really.

@spint note where I said /average/ student, where the most they'd really use is word processing, maybe a spreadsheet and an occasional slideshow or whatever they're called

@thewaifutyphoon Powerpoint?

@thewaifutyphoon Yup, mostly term papers and essays, so I think that alone make use of its purpose quite decently. I mean, it fits my ridiculous amount of work that usually involves typing and explaining in front of the class.

@beatstrings and it syns online when your internet is available, so you don't even really need your laptop or a flash drive if you have internet.

@thewaifutyphoon Nope, no USBs Just a cloud drive on Mega.co.nz. Though I have a external for other files and projects, but I rarely put anything school related on that thing. Only music, mlp and some projects I tend to procrastinate on.

@spint I dunno about a collage, but it's not unheard of to only require what I listed.
Thursday, 03-Jul-14 16:38:00 UTC from web -
@spint I don't think you'd make a collage in college, but many North American colleges tend to follow the criteria Ross listed.

@spint I use Swype as well and I just fix my errors before sending it.
