Microsoft Office Standard 2007 offers the core Microsoft Office applications, but significantly updated for faster, better results. Comprised of Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook, this software suite empowers you to create high-quality documents and presentations, build powerful spreadsheets, and manage your e-mail messages, calendar, and contacts. With improved menus and tools, enhanced graphics and formatting capabilities, new time and communication management tools, and more reliability and security, Office Standard 2007 makes it easier and more enjoyable for you to get things done at home or work.
Pros: Having the most Up to date version of Office is nice. comes in a fancy plastic case that will make you feel bad for throwing it away and also confusing to open. But the disc is Really pretty! (just one disc btw)
Cons: when first booting up computer,Outlook 2007 is very slow to load and switch between calendar, email and other modes, it's faster if you close it and start it afterwards but if you restart computer it will start up slow again. will take some time getting used to words new look especially if you were still using word 2000 like me. but the files are backwards compatible which helps just make sure you know which version recognizes what.
Overall Review: Only Includes word 2007, Excel 2007, PowerPoint 2007 & Outlook 2007 none of that other stuff you get when you buy office ultimate like one note 2007, Access 2007 etc. Lets hope we don't have to upgrade till at least 2012
