Microsoft Project 2003 Standard - No New Features

[John]

Looks like Project 2003 has ZERO new features compared to Project 2002.
Microsoft has a lot of gall for charging over 300 bucks to owners of Project
2002 to "Upgrade"

Au contraire, mon amis! See

In all honesty, that site compares 2000 to 2003
And the Product Enhancements guide of Project 2000 vs. 98 was 28 pages thick

I'd hesitate to say there are ZERO changes, but it is certainly the case
that Project Server got all the attention and Project Standard got mostly
hand-me-downs from Office2003.
On the other hand, users of 2002 can simply skip 2003 and wait for the next
version that is compelling to them.

Am I missing something, or is Project 2003 STILL the last app on earth to
not have multiple Undos?!?

Every other app has trained me that I can make a bunch of changes, then back
up a few steps if I don't like what I get... Not project, I end up doing
things over and over again.

Maybe it's something you grow used to - but damn is it annoying.
