Just installed MS Office 2010

Just installed MS Office 2010 Technical Preview on my Win7 Netbook. It is a beautiful piece of software. Took what was great about 2007 and expanded on it. The biggest addition is integrated PDF creation. You can now create and modify PDFs as well as add comments, etc.. Can't wait for the final version.

I purchased the 2007 Ultimate Office Suite about 6 months ago and hate the new user interface that they for Word and Excel. I still prefer 2003's pull downs, as opposed to having to scroll through all those "pretty pictured" menus that 2007 uses.....

Did they change that for 2010?

It does look like a great new piece of software. It has taken features from many different appz and incorporated it into Office.

Nope. Tabbed browsing, as opposed to drop down menus, is here to stay. It's all over Vista and even moreso on Win7. I like it. Much more organized. Just takes some getting used to.
