Got it.

I got it also, and I have it installed.

I caught the streaming from WPC (and kicked around the earlier leak of the Tech Preview), so I already knew that Office 2010 was going to shake things up.

I actually *understated* how badly things will get shook up.

I'm waiting for certain details I have to keep under wraps (NDA) to be free to talk about, because I've been a beta or TAP tester for every version of Office since Office 95, and I have *never* been this blown away.

Corel? Google? OpenOffice.org? Start sweating.

I received the e-mail for the technical preview.

I go to the MS connect site and start filling out the registration form for the preview and get all the way to end and get an error that says the page can't be found or I don't have permission to view it. It then gives a random combination of letters and numbers. :crazy: I don't get it.... I get an invitation for the Technical Preview and then I can't even access it.?????

Now I have to wait three days for MS to respond about this issue. Could it be that this error is because too many people are accessing the site?

I had that error too. I just looked through my connect directory until it came up, pressed apply and did it through there.

I have it installed on my Se7en partition - but havent messed with it much at all - it appeared to have the same GUI as 2007 - can someone who has used it provide some insight as to the new features ? Since it has x64 support - I was thinking it would "need" the extra headroom for some heavy duty features...but that was just wishful thinking I guess

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      Mac does nothing of the sort. You can change the default browser very easily it does not nag you and when you do this, it does not open something still in Safari....like Windows does with Edge.

      I do not remember anything happening to Apple and Google for bribing people not to make Apps for Windows Phone. Edge barley has a foot print to matter. If the other browser companies want more of the Pie, they need to do better. I use Brave on all my personal device. However in industry, Edge of default, as we can manage it easier with MS tools.

      On the one hand, it shouldn't be difficult. You buy a computer, you decide what OS you want, which browser etc. Simple enough. But that's the techie side of things. My sister, my mother, wouldn't bother with such a thought. And I'm pretty sure that if you presented a window asking them what to pick they would say, "I don't care! I just want to access my Email!"
