Updated: Images showing the classic menu for Word 2010 and Excel 2010 is available using a third party tool called Classic Menu for Office 2007 and does not come standard in Office 2007 or 2010.
Can't see anything like classic menu. What am I doing wrong?
I have XP on my work computer, the interface doesn't change.
Couldn't find any. Maybe I'm blind
I think then it shouldn't be shown in "official" screenshots. Shame to the author.
This is only a tech preview, its not like they have even finished working on the ui yet.
It means that you should take that under your considerations.
No, it upgrades 2007. Surprisingly it is greatly stable.
Even thru a custom setup, it cant be installed in another folder?
Probably it can, but I think it changes all the 2007's registry keys.
You're given the option to replace 2007 or run side-by-side (and oddly I recall there being one more option...) during install.

Maybe we had different distros, I didn't have that option.
You're a phreak, man
The integration with Outlook (really strong in the 2007 version as well) allows me to create Tasks right from my notes, link my notes to calendar appointments, etc. I use this not only heavily at work, but also used it while doing going through my MBA program in college.
It has great organizational capability and the fact that I can search through my notes from any meeting (or class) has really come in handy when a question comes up weeks later.
That said, it really is about how you live and work, digitally or paper based. Personally I would prefer to never use paper for notes, presentations, etc.
If your paper notepad includes a Search function, I'll have a dozen, please.

I completely agree. Personally, I use it as a replacement for all my paper notebooks at school (I use a tablet) and it's extremely useful. 2010 especially - its search feature is much nicer than OneNote 2007's, and it's also more responsive.
It's easier for me to organize things on a computer than on paper. I don't know why, but it just is. Whenever I try using paper notebooks, I always end up with a bunch of loose papers everywhere.
All my notes are on this tablet and synced through Mesh to my home computer and my Live Desktop. If I ever lose this tablet, although it would be quite expensive to replace, I wouldn't lose any of my notes.
Well exactly
Classic Menu for Office 2007
As for the developer menu, you can enable that:
Start Icon in Word 2007 / 2010 >
Word Options >
Show developer tab
The ribbon needs to be customizable like the 03 toolbars are. Or at least provide the custom toolbar in a tab and the menus. Hopefully someone at microsoft will see this.
I just finished a 100 page report in word 2007 and i can tell you one thing. I am never ever using word again for a document of that size with several authors.
