 These guys wouldn't know a user interface from an elbow April 30, 2008

On the edge of the box (several ounces of high quality plastic, over an inch thick containing 1 DVD and a product key slip) is a pair of ribbed tabs to hold the inner box by when you pull it out.
The more firmly you squeeze the ribbed tabs, the more firmly you lock the inner box into the outer. If you ignore the tabs it opens easy!
Who designed this. It must be the same guy who put the OK button on a VGA resolution Display Control Panel, off the bottom of the screen, so that you couldn't increase the resolution.
He probably thought up the form "Do you really want to Quit?" with "Continue" and "Quit" buttons.
The software? - as feature ridden as the previous version - which isn't to say it does a lot. Just that it needs a lot of features in order to do a bit.
Lets hope Bill's exit timing from Microsoft proves to be as timely as Tony's from No 10.
Come on Amazon, send them a complimentary beginners guide to user interface design. It can be your penance for having a 5 star scoring system where the user cannot select zero stars. 8^)
 Outlook 2007 doesn't live up to expectations April 20, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have used and loved Outlook for many years, along with the rest of the Office suite. To get up to date, I just bought the home & student Office suite 07 sans Outlook and bought Outlook 07 separately (thinking $200 total was better than $400). Fine - except this Outlook doesn't hook up with the suite, won't let me set default fonts, and is driving me nuts. I sometimes receive a message in white font on white and can't read it until I hit forward to put it into a message whose font I can change so I can finally see it. I looked it up on Microsoft. It's designed to act this way. Thumbs down.
Game over April 20, 2008

Office 2k7 suite was enough to finally send me to the other side. Have made MAC purchases since, and will be soley MAC soon --- w/ the exception of Outlook due to the business contacts.
As a Computer Engineer, I can no longer accept the Microsoft woes. It is funny, but I swear Office 2k7 has been the most anti-productive SW I have every had to deal with. Will continue to avoid Vista as long as possible.
 Excellent Product!!! April 18, 2008

I bought this product after I purchased a new laptop that I realized I didn't preorder it. I have used Outlook with my Treo phones for a few years and it is always perfect for that use. This new release is nothing less than great.
Great features but very unstable April 12, 2008

I purchased Word 2007 and Outlook 2007 as they link (or are supposed to) with some other software I use regularly at my office. The link for Word has never been a problem but only some of the features of Outlook 2007 actually work with that software. For example, the calendar in Outlook is supposed to sync with the calendar in that program (PCLaw). It never has.
I have found that Outlook 2007 is very unstable as well. It is very prone to lock up. Also, quite frequently, I will have to open it in safe mode as it tells me the program did not exit properly the last time. Even more annoying is that Outlook 2007 will suddenly not allow me to click on a link in an email even though the program allowed it in a previous email. A reboot may or may not solve that problem.
Overall, I need that program for the links to PCLaw, but it has been a very frustrating program.
