 A Bargin for the Price February 5, 2007

When I noticed that Office had the new Powerpoint included, I knew I had to order one of the first copies. I have looked at all four applications that come with Office and think it is well worth the cost. I installed Vista Home Premium on my computer first.
They both work great on my Dell Inspiron E1505 with 1 Mb of RAM with a somewhat limited 80 Gb HD.
Takes some getting used to, but then, WOW!!! March 16, 2007

When I first opened the 2007 edition of "Word," I was very hesitant, as I am extremely comfortable with the 2003 version, and this, well it just clearly wasn't what I was used to. But I started playing around with it, and as a graduate student and military staff officer, I write documents of every description. All I can tell you is, Wow! It is so easy to make a document that is extremely professionally styled, and to quickly change the styles if you desire. For all of you term-paper writers out there, I can tell you that this version of Word makes it easy to manage your bibliography, footnotes, table of contents. I always have "Turabian" open when I'm writing, and I've been able to close the book and let Word 2007 take the guesswork out of it.
I have to admit, that I've had less opportunity to play around with Excel and Power Point in this version of Office (I am very proficient in the 2003 version of these programs), but at a glance, it appears as though (same as with Word) once you get past being startled by the new interface, there are a lot of powerful features you can access with ease. I've gone over the years from MS Office hater to MS Office lover.
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT!! While I have not seen the product any cheaper than it is offered here, I encourage you to go to the Microsoft Website and download a FREE trial version of the product. You get a full sixty days to decide if the product is for you... I'm not waiting!
Review of Word and Excel, haven't tried the new powerpoint September 15, 2007

I was looking for an office for my home computer (I'm not into pirating) and was surprised to find I could buy the 2007 version for cheaper than the 2003 version. I was hesistant to use the new version as I heard it was confusing to use. I am running Windows XP and I use MS Office 2003 at work.
First off I couldn't find the save or print button in Excel. This was a little embarrasing but I quickly discovered these general functions where all under a single menu brought up by clicking an Office Icon. The menus are not pulldown types. Once you click on them it leaves the entire header with options from that particular menu. For example in Excel you can choose the Formulas menu and the header changes to include a bunch of formula categories and other related options. I found this quite handy. I also enjoy the new look.
Although I can't list them all, there are several options that Office has improved upon, including the sort function. They are better an easier to use. It's not enough improvement to run out and buy if you already have Office 2003, but if you don't have anything, or are using Works or Open Office (I love open source but Open Office has a lot of catching up to do), this is well worth the investment.
Superb update to an old standard March 29, 2007

This is the fifth version of Microsoft Office I have used and it is replacing Office XP at home. I use Office 2003 at work. Being a heavy Excel user (for analysis and reporting purposes) I must say that this version is a major improvement in user interface then previous versions I have used. While I was pleased with the 2003 versions improvements with the buffers which helped with the stability of large workbooks (only an issue with large and involved workbooks). I find the ribbons, once used to them, to be intuitive, easier to find what you need and easier to access than pull down menus even when they are hidden.
Most of all I was impressed the first time I highlighted an object and right clicked for a menu, the menu appeared along with formatting buttons which helped save a few steps when changing formatting.
This is the first time I have actually been impressed with a new version of any Microsoft software. While the ribbons to take getting used to, once you do you will wonder why ribbons were not used in earlier versions. Most important is that I check around before I purchased and Amazon had the best price I could find.

Microsoft Finally Made a REAL Change in Office February 6, 2007

The new ribbons are fabulous.
Takes a while to get the intuitive feel for the thinking behind the new interface, as with any new release of software. However, when you do, it really speeds up your work.
Word changes are fabulous, and Excel is even better - the biggest upgrade of the three. Outlook (I got the Standard edition) is also full of several new nice features.
Well worth the cost to upgrade.
