    Office 2016

    Released "properly" today, I have it though my MSDN account (thank you Ex-Ex-ClientCo), but it seems again very heavily pitched to the online Office 365 integration.

    Does anyone still use/care about MS Office?

    New features in the Windows release include the ability to create, open, edit, and save files in the cloud straight from the desktop, a new search tool for commands available in Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook named "Tell Me", and co-authoring in real time with users connected to Office Online

    The user interface design of Office 2016 is relatively unchanged from its predecessor, Office 2013.
    Wow!

            Nope.

            The move to distributing documents in PDF has relieved many of the burden of needing Office for document exchange.

              MS Office 2007. And I sure won't be upgrading, would switch to a free solution if the need arises.

                  How much is an MSDN licence anyway? Much as I don't want anything MS I need Visio and it's not fecking cheap.

                    Had a look at MSO-2016 yesterday; Based on how I use it, I can't see anything which improves on what I have already in MSO-2013, and as for Visio...zilch changes as far as I could make out.
                    The only immediate difference I could see was that 'colour' is back as an option (blue header for Word, green for Excel), but dark grey and white remain, and maybe some subtle changes to Outlook, none of which made me feel I needed to upgrade/shell-out courtesy of My Co. Underwhelmed, much like I was with Win 10 tbh.
