This is where virtualisation software comes to your rescue. VMWare Server,
Virtual Server 2005 R2 or Virtual PC 2004 all provide the capability to
run virtual machines that are isolated from the physical machine. VMWS and
VS are free from VMWare and Microsoft respectively.

Is there an uninstaller for Office 2003 which will enable me to
cleanly install Office 2007 Beta when I get it in the mail?

And will Office 2007 Beta install on an XP partition on an Apple Intel
machine?

How about Vista?

Has there been any luck on dual-booting Vista with OS X yet?

=========================================================

So when should this be released to those without fancy subscriptions? I sure
hope Gates likes me enough let me try Vista. I've really been looking forward
to its release.

I downloaded MS Office Professional Plus 2007 (440MB) yesterday and it took
4 hours. Today I got OneNote 2007(220MB) in 2 hours. Both seem like good
products. I especially like MS Word's great support for multiple languages
and its bibliography, cover page, and other simplified features. It seems
like a busy design, but gives you all the controls you need. I hope it
doesn't take me 16+ hours to download Vista.

Next 3 weeks, persons who signed up to download it, will get a notification.
I am sure a Trial version of the RTM will be also available when the time
comes.

It's the same thing P
All of the Connect/TechNet/MSDN are *exactly* the same build - the same
ISO - the same timestamp etc. and they are all 5384.4 )
