Yep.

http://finance.google.com

It's so pretty. It's a little slow loading and has a few lag issues but overall it's pretty cool. Definitely provides data in a more convenient way than Yahoo (IMO).

is google such a bad thing? come on - they are developing new stuff and very good stuff all the time. Microsoft can't compete with their speed and effectiveness. I was talking to david about how they might be working towards an office package, which would rock considering how much office blows sometimes.

In my experience, Open Office blows. (So does MS Office, but OO is worse). I'd be interested to see what Google comes up with if they develop an office package.

Honestly, office is the only product made by MS that I like. Course then again, I like the Mac version of office MUCH better than the windows version.

Office has gotten better over the years. I like WordPerfect better, but nobody uses it anymore. Boo. Over the past semester or so, I've started doing bigger word processing things in LaTeX. It's sweet, but has SUCH a steep learning curve! biggrin.gif

There's also iWork for any Mac users. It's a bit.... different from Office though. Takes a bit of getting used to.
