I’ve been playing with Office 2007 (free download until February 2007) and it’s really good. The new ribbons make things more intuitive… It’s just a shame that the new design is only present in Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access and the e-mail window of Outlook.
The ribbon and live preview works so much more effectively than the standard File, Edit etc. menus that it feels awkward returning to the old design in Publisher, Visio, SharePoint Designer (previously FrontPage) and Outlook.
Give it a go, it’s interesting to see how user-interfaces will improve in the future and it works on my PC on which I still have Office 2003.
Now I’m off to install Office OneNote 2007 to see what that’s like and whether I should add it to my Samsung Q1 when it arrives next week.
