i used office 2007 for a second. overall i loved it but i needed space so i took it off. for the ones that are hating on it (mostly illogical and sunsnail) stop bitching.
they made the interface to be task oriented. that way as mentioned earlier if you highlight text the formatting bar just appears etc. this is smarter as it makes you more productive. yes i do agree its hard to relearn and find things. figure out how to add a text box. that took me 15mins the first time!
jenny: they changed it all around. they have this thing called the ribbon now. its very dynamic. it changes with the task you are doing. ribbons are added or removed as the task changes. its very intuitive. critics reviewing this were saying "finally something they have been doing on macs for years!" its VERY different so takes LOTS of getting used to, but it is a very good interface.

Nice, it actually sounds pretty sweet to me. I still use Windows 98 though, so it's not something I'll be learning anytime soon.

jenny: maybe you should see a therapist for that? they do have people that can help you through these things. you just have to ask!

At first I disliked it, but really, once you get over that learning curve it is a lot easier to work.
next time you are stuck think to yourself, where should this option be at, then look there. and I really find toolbars to be kinda crappy now. I really like the setup.
