Thanks Randy, that actually makes me feel *slightly* less 
apprehensive about the upcoming Office 2008.

I'm curious, has anything been said about font handling and using it 
with Adobe InDesign?  These are the two areas I'm most concerned 
with, along with spell checking and grammar checking.  I would really 
like to seen the font handling improved.  The sad thing is, this is 
one area where MS Word 2004 blows anything else I've tried away. 
What really gets me is that Apple Pages doesn't even seem to be able 
to handle OpenType fonts!
