PC Mag Preview of MS Office 12

Michael Miller, editor-in-chief of PC Magazine, recently wrote an article about his experience with the much anticipated next Microsoft Office (Microsoft Office "12" Preview).

A couple of things are particularly noteworthy:

Not only has Microsoft radically redesigned the user interface, but it has also added a number of the prominent features of competing office productivity suites. In true Microsoft style, the new Office is evolving just enough to keep up with the competition. (Emphasis added.)

And:

Several welcome features, such as the ability to create PDF files from within the application and the ability to preview font changes as you select the font from the menu, are already familiar in competing programs such as WordPerfect....

More details are covered in the article, such as the new "ribbon" interface which will replace menus.

We'll have to wait and see when the product hits the market how it really stacks up against WordPerfect.
