 Worth the upgrade--for some, 2007-02-14
I run a boutique IT firm and this is a significant improvement over 2003 IF you run high powered computers with large screens. I really like 2007 and have been using the beta for about 6 months. However, I am sticking with 2003 on my ultra portable notebooks since without a big screen the ribbon isn't useful.

Worth the upgrade, 2007-02-13
I have been using the Professional version of this software for about 6 months now. The beta version had some bugs but that is why it was a beta. I became fluent in MS Access while I was working in the corporate world and took that knowledge with me when i started my own business. I wish I had had 2007 when I developed all my software tools around MS Access. It would have greatly reduced my development time. The new interface takes a little while to get used to but now it seems second nature to me. I can even confidently do mail merges between apps. That is something I have always had trouble remembering how to do since i don't do it everyday. The only reason it doesn't get a 5 star rating is that I think the upgrade price is a little steep.

 Excellent, 2007-02-12
One of the best changes ever. Great formating tools that finally make producing good-looking documents easy. You'll have to get used to the new interface, but when you do it's absolutely worth it.
Regarding the Ribbon taking space - it's just about time to switch to higher resolution screens, so it's not a problem at all.
I really liked the new conditional formatting feature in Excel.
Enjoy.

 Not worth a penny!!!, 2007-02-11
MS Office 2007 is the worst Microsoft product ever develpoed. I would like to use Excel 2007 as an example to explain my point of view:
1) The so-called "Ribbon" is so tall that it occupies almost a quarter of my notebook screen, further more, you get status bar and task bar, NOT MUCH SPACE LEFT for you to work in. The thumnail in the ribbon is not nearly as nice as those pop-up windows in older versions.
2) When you try to change a line style in a graph, this version update the entire screen instead of a sample-view in the pop-up window, thus, comsuming a lot of CPU power and slows down computer tremendously. You really need to upgrade your hardware to run office 2007.
3) If you have multiple data sets (say 10 sets) in a graph and you want to change the data range, you'll find that it's a big headache to do so in version 2007, because you have to pop up new windows 10 times instead of once in older version.
4) When open my old Excel files in this version, all VBA codes got lost.
5) Overall, the Office 2007 has a new look but much worse performance. I would not spend a penny for this junk!!!

Great product, 2007-02-07
Much improved and beautiful interface, great new features, easy update. (How can a company like Microsoft release such a great product and, at the same time, release a lemon like Vista?)
