Office 2010 screenshots emerge
Assuming this is truly what Office 2010 is going to look like, and that it’s not an internal in-progress build, I have only two thoughts:
- It used to be that Microsoft drove the ‘de-facto’ standard for UI design, and Office and the Microsoft UI guidelines pretty much set the tone for everything else on the desktop. This has waned over time, but is still true in many ways for Windows desktop software, and especially for Windows enterprise software.
- I’m really, really happy to see this, because it means that companies like ours will have work to do for years to come.
