I don't know if anyone was at the MS developers' conference yesterday, but
this is both interesting and rather scary! There's a new gui for office 12,
and what looks like a totally new model for command bars.

I particularly like the screen shot of word with three new very large
toolbar buttons - Paste, Find and Proofing tools - taking up the equivalent
space of about 36 command bar buttons. I prefer Ctrl V, Ctrl F, and never
use the proofing tool myself.

Does anyone know how compatible this will be with XP, 2003 etc?
