Notepad is my last weapon against Microsoft Office. If they ever take it away, I don't know what I would do.

Do you find that on your Windows machine, you are constantly laundering your text-based clipboard data through notepad.exe in order to strip out the "smart" meta-data that Office applications send into the clipboard in order to confuse themselves with indentation, smart-quotes, over-wrought table formatting, etc?

Or is it just me?
