That was AWESOME!

Microsoft certainly been doing the right moves last couple of months. Maybe they are getting back in to the game now… I can smell fear.

OpenOffice? You must be kidding! Worst piece of software ever written. Like they say, there is a reason it is free.. Three licenses of Office 2007 for $90? I´d pay $100 for one license if it would save me from OpenOffice!

It’s deserving of nothing but contempt isn’t it. Another failed attempt at trying to be funny … or something. As someone who hasn’t used Office for several years this certainly didn’t make me want to investigate further.

They’re spending this kind of cake on action-movie commercials, but they’re still rendering HTML emails in Outlook using their Word engine?

Priorities fail.

Wow… it’s a film that I’m actually wanting to Access!

I hope those “Secret” agents Excel at There jobs!

And I hope they take (one)Note of OpenOffice.

And I think I need to stop with these awful puns, lest my outlook starts looking grim…

(oh one more!)

Any how I could really get into the Groove of this new Office suite

Word.

Quite funny. But I wonder if this is what Microsoft spends their millions on! Maybe that’s where all our licence fees go to. Hmm.

Looks good huh.. I wonder If Bill gates would show up in the movie.

(About the trailer: I am wondering why they mention the “fonts”, I like the woman who said, “the font is in between Arial to Windings”, cool huh?)

Love the conversation John made up, good work.
Just don’t take it so seriously, guys. Microsoft is slacking off, so let it be. Quite a nice vid they’ve made anyway.
I was LOLing at that Clippy reference, like it was a partner of that male agent. Also, seems like they’re giving the Office apps names to the agents and characters. Seems like “Word” is the bad guy(yeah, seeing that it’s the app creating all documents), and Powerpoint and all other guys are agents or something. Another interesting thought, remember those lines like “Excel and Sharepoint Workspace blahblahblah”, “Onenote is here”, or “Visio is back”? They kinda made a pun on that. It may be agents’ names, but it might also be what’s in the Office bundle.
Oh, and did anyone get the funny part I found? Remember in the interrogation room part, when the agent is asking about the font, and the bad guy answered “Somewhere between Arial and Wingdings”? Arial is about the first default font and Wingdings is at the end of the default font lists, so that female isn’t helping at all. That’s why the male agent went crazy, got that?
Last thought, actually Office 2010 isn’t that bad. I mean, excluding the UI changes, there are actually something else, I can’t really list them though. I still wish MS would create a better ad besides the Office2010themovie thingy.
