Negative Positive
Title: Back To The Past
Review: With Outlook 2007 Microsoft went backwards in a fundamental concept of Windows by moving and relabeling icons in an application that has been around for a long time. For me, this means re-learning where Microsoft has moved/hidden everyday buttons like "Print". For my 80-year old parents this has brought their usage to a standstill. Windows brought a standardized GUI - consistent standard icons in consistent application locations - that changed the world. The Office 2007 apps have apparently lost that compass. Unfortunately, if you're on a PC, you don't have an alternative... except maybe to start looking at OpenOffice. Doesn't help my parents.
Is the review positive or negative?
