MS Office Beta Notes

This is a side-blog where I intend to keep all of my notes from Beta testing new versions of Office. This will keep them all in one place for future reference. I started this with Office 2003, and am bringing it back for the 2007 version. This is not an official Microsoft site, this is just the ramblings of one IT guy.

OneNote review

Jim at Tabula PC has a review of OneNote after using it for a few months. He comes at it from a TabletPC user's point of view, which isn't one I can give you right now! :)

InfoWorld Special Report

The InfoWorld Special Report on Office 2003 is up. I'll have to spend quite a lot of time reading through this before I have any comments on it. Link pulled from Jon Udell's discussion of Office 2003.

Release version

Looks like Steven got caught unaware that OneNote was not included in Pro. I think he's not the only person who will be surprised by that, given how much press both OneNote and InfoPath got during the beta phase. It might be difficult to understand how those two can get so much coverage and not be part of the Pro release.

By the way, I agree with Steven about an InfoPath for dummies. It is really hard to get started working with, and not being a programmer by trade, I've can't help but feel like I'm barely scratching the surface of what it can do.
