marco: Office 2010 Screenshots Preview What’s to Come And… I’m glad I’m over here in Mac-webdev-land, not over there in Windows-Office-world. It’s amazing that anyone over there gets anything done at all. (Do they?) They’ve come so far… Marco’s right in a sense - it is impossible to get anything done in Windows-Office-world because of the countless feature design meetings, security/globalization/localization/compatibility/performance committee reviews, and so on. That said, I think a lot of his snark is off-base; Office 2007 is a great app (Steve Sinofsky exercised some top-down control and a ton of bloat got cut out as a result). It’ll be interesting to see how 2010 shapes up, now that Sinofsky is over running Windows development now (I’m actually typing this on a Win7 machine - and it’s a huge improvement over Vista).
