abstract algebra and office 2007

Seems I forgot to post one of the finals.  For Abstract Algebra I, we had to write a report on something related to the course, so I spent a few hours (2am-4am) Wednesday morning writing about check-digit schemes.  Nothing too exciting, but perhaps you can take this as a selling point for Microsoft Office 20007.  This took 2 hours, and it doesn’t look to shabby at all.  Here’s the report: Check Digit Schemes Based upon Weighted Multiplication and Dihedral Groups.  And if you haven’t already, go download a 60-day trial for Office 2007.  All my most-wanted features have been implemented: better support for styles, awesome TeX-like equation editor, and automatic works cited/bibliography management(!), and the ribbon (yes, I like the ribbon).  And no, I’m not a Microsoft fanboy, as I think Office 2007 is the first half-decent Microsoft product since XP (which was partially decent).
