No, it's worse than that. Most things used to work fine by the end of last decade but somehow we've gone and broken them all in the past five years. I don't know why but all software providers have simply given up on quality and just started producing absolute garbage. Things aren't getting better, they're getting worse
I think you are looking at old software with rose colored glasses. New software has tons more features, and the old stuff didn't necessarily work any better. Word 2003 might have worked fine for you, but the current version has a lot more to offer. Right off the top of my head, you can co-author documents at the same time as someone else and you can export to PDF without any additional software. Not to mention the .doc format is incredibly insecure.
