Why do you need Microsoft Office?

Many of us grew up with Microsoft Office. Now you are most likely using Office 2003, 2007 or 2010. But why are we using Microsoft Office anyway?

How much of the software's capabilities are we suing? 5%? 10%? I don't even know many of the items on the menu anyway. We do not print the document like we used to. I can tell you some days I don't even open Word, Excel or PowerPoint. I don't use Outlook anymore for my email. So, tell me why I need Microsoft Office again?

Oh yes, some of my friends send me Word file. I wish they just sent me a test email or PDF. They are much lighter and easier. So can I live without Office software? I am sure I cannot live without a browser or email software, but they are free. So, why am I spending $200 ~ $300 for a software I don't use very often?

Maybe I don't need them.
