Office 2010 Technical Preview: screenshots review
Reviews We could have installed the suite on top of the Release Candidate of Windows 7, but we wanted to see how Office 2010 would work without the latest operating system sitting underneath it. Office has grown over the years to encompass much more than...

Google Apps for Your Domain review
Reviews At the moment, the suite (it really should be called Google Office) is a bundle of existing Google products, loosely integrated by the way you manage them for your business and the fact that they share a domain -- your domain.

Protect yourself against hackers review
Reviews Your only option, other than abandoning Office XP for another suite such as StarOffice 6.0, is to make the software as bulletproof as possible. The suite is the most popular on the planet, so malicious coders can hit lots of unsuspecting targets...

StarOffice 6.0 beta review
