EXCEL 2007 in BSCHOOLS

Hey Guys,
My school just switched to Excel 2007 this summer and I was wondering how many other schools are switching/have already switched?
If so, why the F would they switch if most BBs still use 2003??!?

2007 sucks

Excel 2003 is much easier and better.

The reason I'm asking is that if most bschools (and for that matter BBs and MMs) are still with 2003 then Ill try and make some sort of argument (to my school) for switching back (which seems a little unrealistic but wtf, its worth it)
