nowimnothing Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Not that this hasn't been speculated on for a while (with "the 14th or 15th" being the most common thing i heard), but Jensen Harris just confirmed it today. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randolph Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I will be a patch to be applied over B2 I never knew you was the Technical Refresh that would be applied over Beta 2? :s And yes you need Beta 2 installed for this supposedly.

ngoducthang Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Yep I will be also, the office beta has been pretty stable for everyday use... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amrinders87 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Cant wait. Like Beta 2, the Technical Refresh will be available for public download at a cost of $1.50, a nominal fee Microsoft has added in order to recoup some of the distribution fees associated with the beta. Current Beta 2 customers, however, will receive the update free of charge.For those users, the Technical Refresh will be distributed via the Web as a patch that is installed over Beta 2.

ryanmcv Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Any ideas on what time? From Doug Mahugh's blog: You'll be able to download the Beta 2 TR release as of 9:00AM tomorrow (Thursday), on the Office Preview site. (I'm assuming that means 9:00am PST) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a_witko Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 win95 + wordpad has been ok till now... i need some extra features they never ended up implementing though. will this work on win95? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfodder Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 you are kidding right ? windows 95 is over dood time to upgrade :p i'm looking forward to the refresh ... my biggest request is that they bring the word art from excel into word ... and make access more stable, it crashes left right and center ! from what i have seen, the 'refreshed' UI looks good ... i like the smaller 'orb' and im looking forward to the collapsable ribbons, they are ridiculously large in beta 2 and it drives me crazy.
