Office 2010 Technical Preview Leaked

Posted by Soulskill on Sunday May 17, 2009 @04:13AM from the that-didn't-take-long dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft was planning on giving out the Office 2010 Technical Preview to select testers in July on an invite-only basis. Office 2010 will be available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions, and both flavors have been leaked to torrent sites and the like. Multiple screenshots of each application are available. '... some applications have changed a lot more than others. The ribbon seems to be on every application now, which is great for consistency's sake. ... The biggest change, in my opinion, is that the no file/orb menu is no longer a menu. When you click the colored office button, you get a screen that is shown in the second screenshot for each application.'"

Yes, there might be more bells and wistels in MSOffice, but the fact remain; Everything I need is in OpenOffice, and at a WAY better price!

Have you tried Dia as an alternative to Visio? I've used Visio myself in the past, but it seems that Dia does just as much as I ever did with Visio.
It would be nice if there was a visio replacement in openoffice.org.
Dia comes pretty close in functionality but it's biggest drawback is the lack of great looking shapes for different lines of work.
