#Michael Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Fresh on the heels of a delay in broad availability of Windows Vista, Microsoft confirmed late Thursday that it is also pushing the mainstream launch of Office 2007 to next year.As with Vista, Microsoft hopes to finish the code for Office 2007 this year and make it available to some large businesses by the end of December. "We have, however, decided to coordinate with Windows Vista to hit retail store shelves in January 2007," a Microsoft representative said in an e-mail to CNET News.com. "We believe this will provide an easier experience for consumers and retailers alike."

+John. Subscriber¹ Posted March 24, 2006 Subscriber¹ Share Posted March 24, 2006 Weren't they meant to be releasing both at around the same time? If so, it stands to reason that both should be delayed till the same time frame. Most people will buy Vista, and then see this 'next-gen' version of Office, and get that as well. It's all about the marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
