I don't find Office 2007 any slower than 2003. I just know I need to keep
2003 around to do stuff I can't do in 2007.
(My most-used program is
PowerPoint, your mileage may vary, depending on what applications you use
most and how you use them.) Anyway, that's why I opt for both.
If you can only choose one, maybe you could install one of the Office 2007
trials and see how you like it specifically on your new machine. I don't
know that you'll find it significantly slower or faster, but it's always
better to try before buying if you can.

1 GB Athlon X2 running Vista Home Premium. I know I could probably get

with either version (I don't do anything with large files), I was just
trying to figure out if one version would be "significantly slower than
another.

I can't give you an educated response on this one but common sense says yes,
it will. Each new version requires more resources than previous versions.
What do you mean by "limited resources"?

I am getting a new Vista computer with limited resources. I like the
interface on 2007 but don't really have to have it. Does 2007 use more
resources thus slowing my computer down?
Thanks... Bob
