 Same old stuff, too bad i can't give it ZERO stars. June 7, 2001

Like all the products that Microsoft make, this is just same old stuff with a new name on it AND some more major bugs. I don't like the idea of mandatory registering, one would question what kind of DATA is microsoft collecting from our home PC. it's also too expensive for nothing new. Stick with office 2000 as long as u can.

nothing new. It's slightly better versions of everything, nothing nessisary, even for buisness. Office 2000 was excellent, inovative, and still great! It's a much better deal to get O2000 now, O2002 is too exprensive for nothing great

After you install this product, you will be forced to call Microsoft for permission to use it again if you re-format your hard drive and reinstall. In other words, you will not "own" anything except the right to beg Microsoft for permission to use what you have paid for. If you want this, please go ahead and order this software.

I have been using the Office XP Beta for several months. The icons highlight better, the task panes are very helpful, especially in PowerPoint, and the applications run snappier, although a speedy PC always helps.The most interesting feature with the largest potential is Smart Tags. Many are built into the applications, and they allow the user access to many commands right at the point of need as opposed to having to use the menus. As more people develop Smart Tags, they will be available for downloads and installation on any PC. With the capability of Smart Tags, almost any feature or function whether local or over the Internet can be implemented. Many previously custom developed applications can now be implemented with small amounts of Visual Basic code implemented as Smart Tags. Smart Tags can even be implemented in Internet Explorer with Microsoft free Web Components. The two negative features. One is on-line registration which will limit flexibility in where Office XP is installed. The second is the fact the Outlook 2002 will not allow emails containing exe, vbs, or 11 other extensions to be read. These attachments are held by Outlook and not available to the receiving user to stop the spread of viruses. There should be a way to override this, but the release version allows no override.
 Fantastic Product June 1, 2001

This is a very pricey suite of applications, but if you are thinking about Office 2000 forget it, go to XP. This is the greatest version of Office I have ever worked with (that would be all of them to date)and Microsoft has listened to the customer. The voice recognition engine (L&H) is very good out of the box, and the improvements to Outlook, Publisher, and FrontPage are right on target. Access supports previous versions (2000 by default), Task panes, clipboard, search, and everything else that is shared between the programs are nearly flawless. SmartTags are GREAT. If you can't tell by now, I love this product. You get what you pay for.......
