Technology Can Kiss My -

All my creativity?

Vomited up onto a Works document (even worse than a Word document) then vaporized in one, helpless, Ctrl + V.

And this is why I use a Fudging typewriter.

An AlphaSmart is a good compromise. Easy to transfer to a computer, super lightweight for lap typing and portability, tons of battery life and it saves immediately so you will likley never lose anything.

I'm with you. I have had that happen one too many times - and once is enough! Google Docs saves every few words, so that's as close to anything not typewritten I get.

You know, I have a Neo, but I don't use it very often. I can't reread everything I wrote without hassle, which is good for mind dumps, but isn't so great for my non-frenzied writing habits, lol

Amen, brother. (To the fudging typewriter part, not the "lost my work" part. That part is a shame.)

And why did I write "brother"? My mistake. I was so caught up in agreeing with you that I lost my wits. Apologies.

Google Docs.

I think the title should be Microsoft can kiss my -

the issue is due to MS's monopolizing habits, you only have MS software. I recommend replacing Windows with Ubuntu,and finding better replacements for MS Office applications.
