Hands-on Preview of Microsoft Office 2010

[wraggster]

Microsoft has announced full details of Office 2010 and its plans for an accompanying suite of online applications, and PC Pro has been given special access to a technical preview. Contributing Editor Simon Jones gives his initial verdict on the new suite, concluding that there's "still a long way to go in terms of fit and finish... but overall Microsoft has made good strides in increasing usability, cohesiveness and collaboration." This is followed by detailed first looks at Word 2010, Excel 2010, Outlook 2010 and PowerPoint 2010, with Outlook certainly looking to be the greatest beneficiary. And finally, a gallery of screenshots shows off all the new interface touches in Office 2010, including Outlook's conversation view, Word's picture editing function and the new cut and paste preview option.

I hope they will keep the user interface from Office 2007. It took some time to get used to it but know I really like it. Those screenshots look promising.
