&gt; <i>Microsoft Office pisses me off more with its constant crashes and weird bugs than Google Docs does.</i><p>Crashes &#x2F; weird bugs and MS Office... that&#x27;s something new to me. I always considered MS Office to be a set of some of the most stable applications I&#x27;ve ever seen. Do you do something atypical, so that the bugs&#x2F;crashes could be related to a platform or some rarely used features? I&#x27;m asking out of curiosity.<p>Google Docs et al. don&#x27;t just lack advanced functionality, they lack a lot of quite basic functionality too. But my point wrt. webapps is also one of ergonomics. I do a lot of work in Google Docs and Spreadsheets due to external reasons, and I absolutely hate the experience. No matter how fast a computer I use, the lag on the Google&#x27;s office suite is very annoying and distracting. Like with some IDEs which are slow enough to make one unable to ever enter the state of flow, Google&#x27;s spreadsheets routinely double the time I am spending on a task due to simple lag on almost every operation.
