I could be wrong, but does it look like they have overhalled all the GUIs except for Outlook?  Outlook looks almost exactly the same as 2003 but all the others look new and imporved.  Then again I could be wrong.

Yeah I don't think they've finished ribonising it yet :)

"Hi, my name is Kenta, and I enjoy bashing Microsoft for breaking their own rules."

If somebody is going to break their "guidelines", wouldn't they be the company to perform such a paradigm shift? I would be willing to bet your average "illiterate" user could figure out how to use this GUI at least 5 times faster than the current Office toolbar mess. When you have 25 toolbars to choose from in one program, you have a problem. I, for one, am glad they decided to think outside the box and come up with a new solution, rather than try to redo what's already been done.

And I'm guaranteed to be in the Beta, thanks to my PDC attendance. :p (not that I'm rubbing it in, just, uh, stating a fact. Yeah. That's it. Yeah.)

Batter the computer illiterate with complex looking GUI's that are bloated and take up room.

Good job Microsoft.

Not to mention that this GUI breaks every guidline Microsoft has set including Vista.

Remember the last PDC what they said. "Most users ask for features that are already in the software" SO when you see the screenshots you see alot of graphical representation of the features in the program which is good for ANY computer user.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 changelog: Uses electron 42.5.0 #2452 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.6.
