    I personally like the new Office 2010 it is so much faster on one of my slower systems but I would like to see more if I am to upgrade for good. For 32 bit users it was a 500 and something megabyte download which required Office 2007.

    The colour schemes are alright except for the ribbon being a classic gray. I like the backstage feature except for when I need to save quick. The print function is so much better once you find the print button in the top left and doesn't require you to physically press the printer properties and change them it now comes up with options for most common tasks such as double side and hope it does the same with punching and stapling with photocopiers (I can't count the number of times I have been asked how to staple and punch).

    There are quite a few small changes overall but I hope they fix up their graphics some of them are really distorted even on a very small standard screen.

    I agree that alot of the features she said were new are already in word 07.
    Looks like very little change in 2010. Might be pointless to upgrade...

    Mostof those features are already in Word '07, with the exception of the screenshot, and the fancy letters, which was only in power point I believe...

    Its probably another Vista->7 type of upgrade, all under the hood, faster, easier, etc

    Loving the slight changes to the GUI :P
