Microsoft word update messes up exams in Denmark (www.dr.dk)

Sorry for the Danish post i hope you can translate it.

The Ministry warns that Microsoft programs can create problems for written exams for students with Mac computers.

Users who have updated the programs to the latest version may experience the programs running slowly, freezing and crashing. This means that the examinees are delayed in their work and that parts of the answers risk being lost, write the Agency for Education and Quality and the Agency for IT and Learning in a notice to schools.

And you think it's a good thing that Microsoft has so taken over companies and governments that you now no longer have the choice?

Also, you can use open formats and learntbhe tools. It's not like Microsoft word is rocket science
