Axon Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 (edited) Beta site working fine now. :ninja: BitTorrent is always working fine. :ninja: 586824383[/snapback] Thats what I did, and I'm an official tester. I got fed up with waiting so I just grabbed it off of BitTorrent and used my CD-Key :laugh: Hope thats not against the rules! **Edit I'm having the weirdest problem.. During the install the progress bar seems to be "stuck". It jumps forward, then jumps back! :laugh: I don't know what to make of it! -Ax Edited November 18, 2005 by Axon Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/398739-office-12-beta-1-released/page/9/#findComment-586824541 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinchlee Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Something that absolutely amazes me is the fact how even Office 12 on Windows Vista is unable to display a nice antialiased pie chart. Microsoft Office 2004:mac does this without a problem. Isn't it the time to fix stuff like this?Top: Microsoft Excel 12 on Windows Vista Bottom: Microsoft Excel 2004 on Mac OS X 10.4.3 586821981[/snapback] windows is jus cant get as bright as mac bcoz of graphics Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/398739-office-12-beta-1-released/page/9/#findComment-586824934 Share on other sites More sharing options...

windows95isg8 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 any updates on the pre-beta one? (which i am currently using) 586825098[/snapback] Excel looks difrent in this beta from the one that was leaked a while ago. As does frontpage. Frontpage has a difrent name now to. Its called 'Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 12' Im loving the new office, and it says we are going to get updates as they come out. I was thinking. But if that happens. do we need to go to the shops in the end and get a copy :blink: Well I guess we are helping them out after all.

someotherguy Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm having the weirdest problem.. During the install the progress bar seems to be "stuck". It jumps forward, then jumps back! :laugh: I don't know what to make of it!-Ax 586824541[/snapback] Thats what happened to me, but I didnt touch anything. I was sure something was wrong, because when I first saw it I was like "WTF??? The progress bar is going backwards?!?!". :p But I let it continue to go back and forth for a couple minutes, and then it jumped all the way to 100% and installation was complete. You can also tell that its still working while the progress bar is moving back and forth because shortcuts were being added to the start menu, etc. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/398739-office-12-beta-1-released/page/9/#findComment-586825333 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ev0| Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 well i've had it for 2 days now.. i have to say... This is a long time coming... awesome. i'm thinking the ribbon should be in vista as well, because it's a user interface leap forward. Screw drop down menus that is SO old !

emel Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I extracted frontpage and onenote. dropped the files in office pro files and the installer picks frontpage and onenote files fine.. saved me from making a AIO menu.. Also looked at the .xmls and you can put key, username, organization etc. so it wont ask you for product key anymore.. the unattendent file is almost vista beta 1 style..

This is a long time coming... awesome. i'm thinking the ribbon should be in vista as well, because it's a user interface leap forward. Screw drop down menus that is SO old ! 586825784[/snapback] It's definitely a leap forward :/ It's easier in the fact that it takes less steps to get to a feature, but now you can't browse around for all the features :( finding out what things there might be...even if you can't use them at the moment. It's also a little slower since you can't have one continous click going from a menu title to an item, like in the previous versions. I like it, it's just that somehow feels as if there are less features.... It's just a little weird at first not having a menu bar. And Where's Clippy or at least the Question Box :D ?
