Microsoft Office 2008 sneak peak no. 2
Microsoft's Mac Business Unit (Mac BU) today unveiled its second sneak peek of Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac, which showcases the revamped Toolbox with true one-stop destination for some of the most useful tools in Office for Mac. The new feature combines the original Office for Mac Toolbox and Formatting Palettes into a single user interface, providing Mac users with an Object Palette as well as Animation Settings, Citations, and a Formula Builder. The sneak peak includes plenty of screenshots covering the Toolbox, Elements Gallery, Document Elements, Publishing Layout View, OfficeArt, SmartArt Graphics, Building Charts, and "My Day." Details on the Toolbox are highlighted with tips on finding what you need and customization options. [updated]
Notice: image distortion is due to capturing animated flash movies.

What's the over/under on the number of "wizards" Microsoft stuffs into Office 2008?
Self-segregation is not always such a bad thing.
Seems like not much has changed since then. Why are Microsoft engineers so consistently so brickheadedly literal-minded, so linear-thinking, so content to perpetuate the status quo? F*ck them. Even Word 5.1 betrayed symptoms of PC-thinking design, symptoms which have mutated over the successive versions into expression as full-blown diseases in themselves.
