Other changes are more subtle. The switch from proprietary file formats to XML is good and will help open up Microsoft files for work with third-party applications. They’re smaller, too, though this isn’t all down to XML. So, should you upgrade from Office 2003? If you’re reading this from the US, the answer is probably yes, but with the differential between US and UK prices, it’s not so clear cut this side of the ocean. Microsoft claims to leave pricing to retailers, but all retailers mark up by pretty similar amounts, based on Microsoft’s wholesale price (they have to, there’s fierce competition), so this argument doesn’t wash. The upgrade only, Education version (for students or teachers) and the OEM versions are much more attractively priced, but it’s frustrating that in the US buyers don’t have to consider these options to be able to afford the product. Overall then, the new and improved features will maintain Office 2007 as the leading integrated suite on the Windows platform – we just wish it didn’t hurt quite so much in the UK when you click ‘Debit My Card’.
