Microsoft Office 2010 Beta Now Available

If you’ve been aching to get your hands on the latest iteration of what is the most selling software title of all time, namely the latest instalment in the Microsoft Office – namely Microsoft Office 2010 – and you happen to be either a Technet or a MSDN subscriber then you’ll doubtless be pleased to know that you can get you hands on the Microsoft Office Beta as of today.


Along with sporting all the usual suspects – Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint – Microsoft Office 2010 also heralds a new, somewhat more polished user interface utalising tabs and, of course, whilst bringing updates to all its key component programs, such a new Broadcast Slideshow feature for PowerPoint, a new Word file menu that’s heavy on the visuals and enhanced charts and graphs in Excel, MS 2010 also offers up Microsoft SkyDrive integration – with all copies of Office 2010 coming bundled with access to 25GB of online storage space.

Set to hit the shelves as a release candidate within the first half of 2010 (there’ no specific date as yet, or certainly not one that’s been officially confirmed that we know of) if you’re a Technet or MSDN subscriber you can now act to get to grips with the beta and, if you fancy offering us a little feedback, or some insight as to your thoughts concerning MS Office 2010.
