I probably only use 5-10% of Word’s capability, so a simple word processor like this sounds strong enough, but the only problem is accessing your docs when you don’t have an internet connection. These days, there are less and less times when that is the case, but still, having docs on the laptop to use in the plane, etc. makes sense. One thing I do however is send the important suff to either Box.net (free 1 gig of storage) or attach them to an email and send to gmail.

I really like the idea of uploading to Google Docs as well though. Thanks for the tips!
