If I were that boss I would just 'splain' "ain't going to happen". I understand your fear, but I will say that I have never installed any of the MS Office applications and I have never received an e-mail I can't open and read. Never.

I can see a case for browser plug-ins. But again, I am just curious. I can understand a boss not really caring if employees don't have the latest web plug-ins.

Booth, no man is an island. Sure the user may not need the new feature. But the first time they get an email attachment that's in a new version of Word that they cannot open then they'll have to upgrade, regardless of whether or not they need those new features.
