    Nah, I need those fonts for my job unfortunately, because we have standardized fonts and we use a program that explicitly requires Microsoft Word.

      If you are doing word merges or something and need to have a standardized load then you are kind of locked on there. We aren’t all lucky enough to have an in house team that will build a one-off app to do whatever.

      Extra-stuck if it is postage or banking related.

      Now, if it was a home PC, then the Windows tax is making less and less sense.

        Yeah, I can’t wait to ditch it for linux. Although the Windows tax is not as expensive as the Apple tax. You mostly pay with your nerves…
