Microsoft completes Office 2007

Microsoft is planning to unveil their new Microsoft Office 2007 to corporate customers on November 30 and to will become widely available to consumers in early 2007. This new software was pushed back from its original release date due to a series of development delays. Also Microsoft is also planning on releasing the new Windows Vista operating system in early 2007 as well. Windows Vista and Office 2007 represent major improvements to Microsoft's two most vital products, which account for more than half of the company's total revenue and nearly all of its profit. This release comes as an answer to the critics who say question Microsoft’s ability to keep up with their faster-growing competitors, whom offer software over the Internet instead of on the desktop. The question is, will these new products help increase Microsoft’s profits and revenue? Will this new operating system work with out the major bugs and glitches that some of their previous software had? Finally will Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista allow for Microsoft to continue their strangle hold on the market?
