I love the new interface. I love the new capabilities. The question is how fast will firms move to Office 2007? I think the big advantage to Office 2007 (the greatly improved interface) is also going to prove to be the Achilles heel for implementation. The Office 2007 interface will require a certain amount of retraining, mostly of the “where is that feature now” type training. Does that make it a huge disadvantage? I don’t think so. I believe smaller firms will be early adopters of Office 2007, while mid-sized and larger firms will take a more languid approach to implementation. Once you get past the initial “where it that feature” hunting, the interface is a joy to work with.
