If you have limited work, then Microsoft Word 2007 can be the best option for you to work. There might be no such differences in the latest version. The same goes for Microsoft Word 2007, even if there are a lot of versions launched but the old version might be more comfortable to work. For example, if you are handy with the old version of any particular software and you come across the latest version of it with extra features you as a user will be confused and pissed off as it will take time to get familiar and handy with the same.
The reason behind this is the limited work we have and extra features may confuse the users. No matter what the old version works more fine and smooth even if there are constant upgrades of versions in the market.
