Yeah, Office 2003 is the sweet spot. It's also the last version that installs entirely offline, without any attempts to sign in or phone home for verification.

- frosted-flakes 5y agoOffice 2003 has usage telemetry, and was apparently quite useful when they were making Office 2007, because they knew what people actually used and how often.
- yuhong 5y agoOffice 2003 was one of the first MS products to contain SQM/CEIP. Part of the reason I wrote about CompatTelRunner and Appraiser (in Windows) is that no other MS product has telemetry this horrible. This telemetry consumes CPU and HDD/SSD time to even collect the data.
