Office Wine

"I want to make the world a better place for me to live in." - Lucy in Peanuts

I work in the real world. However much I may want to work in Linux, I will always work with real people...and apparently real people use Microsoft Office! So I needed to install Office on my Ubuntu Jaunty system. Being somewhat lazy, busy with work, travelling the world (been in 11 countries this summer), I have been putting off this post about how I successfully installed Office in Ubuntu. Unfortunately, for the longest time I was just as unsuccessful in doing the same for my wife, but now I have succeeded in that as well, so here you go! These instructions are quite self explanatory, and don't actually need any editing of my own! The only thing to mention is that I had no problems using the latest stable version of Wine, so it is a little easier than Saman makes it out to be!

P.S. It turns out the installation had some bugs, so if you experience some glitches you want to try the previous guide!
