What is going on with the download servers?!

My download got to 99%. 0.5MB to go and "trying to connect" :cry:

Me to. I have one machine sitting at .5 megs, and another chugging away at 25-150kps (rates all over the place, backup download).

To change the theme, click on the MIGHTY MS OFFICE LOGO :D, click word (or w/e) options, then on that screen is an option to change to "Obsidian (Black)".

EDIT: This is such a cool release. It actually works for a start, and I'm loving the new UI, but the black theme is too black

Finished downloading!

Hoped that Ms was going to change the office icons.

For what it's worth. Office 2007 Refresh is a very quick performer. The visible changes also rock, the dark "obsidian" scheme is very professional. 9.8/10 from me!

If I sign up for the beta two office would I get a copy of the final like they did with 2003 office? Will the key work with the final?

I don't think you can sign up for office 2007 beta anymore, and only a select few beta testers for office 2003 recieved the full final product. However the beta 2 package we recieved was massive and very good.

We got a portable FM-radio with ms logo on it as a gift when the beta was over :rofl:

And is Frontpage (ahem, Sharepoint Designer) in this release? As far as I know it wasn't in Beta 1

Sharepoint was in the first beta release and it is in this refresh too. It might not be included in the smaller BT download. There is a 1+ GB download I was getting before the site crashed called MS Office Select (I think). It had all the regular apps but also included Sharepoint, Project, Visio, and a couple others.

New UI looks very nice and it's very functional. I like the black theme a bit more.

Everything works much better than the first beta... except from Access, in a table when I change to Design View it stops responding and freezes, I have tried with Access 2007 and Access 2000 databases and still the same issue, anyone else gets this problem? :unsure:

    • Thanks Microsoft but no, I find both iterations of Outlook terrible nowadays and switched back to Thunderbird at home.
    • Happens to the best of us, bro. 😛 
    • Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
