Previously hard-to-find features now easier to explore
Easier to produce impressive documents, spreadsheets, etc.
Improved integration throughout the applications
Documents easier to salvage if corrupted
The bad:
Steep learning curve if you're upgrading
New interface isn't always intuitive
Users of older versions need converters to read Office 2007 files
The bottomline:
Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is a worthy upgrade if you need to make sleeker-looking documents and presentations. But you stick to your current software if you don't feel that it lacks anything.
