Microsoft enthusiast and blogger Stephen Chapman has spotted what appears to be an internal software roadmap from Microsoft. The roadmap reveals a milestone of year end 2009 but the dates aren't very clear:In the roadmap you can see that Office 14 is clearly identified as Microsoft Office System 2009.
Bink: I dont think so, we might get Office 14 released this year but it will not be named Office 2009, it will be named Office 2010.
Or maybe.... Office 7 !! I mean it is possible as long as marketing likes it. Office 95 and Office XP came out with Windows 95 / Windows XP, now lets have Windows 7 with Office 7 .
They never used 7 with before and as for version number? Microsoft marketing does not bother, Windows 7 is Windows 6.1 in binary version, so Office 14 binary named Office 7 seems fine too.
Yeah, let's hope for Office 7!
Calling it Office 7 might confuse people in my eyes, but then if Windows 7 is well received it might work.
Anyone who's been around a while will remember we have already had word 8, etc. I'm not sure what the office suite was numbered then, I was still in school ;)
OTOH 14 = 2x7, there's an angle there maybe?
I've always wondered why people get so excited over what the next version of "X" MS product will be called. I care very little as long as it's better than the last one.
