I'm currently running office 2003 on my xp machine and was considering upgrading to Office 2007. I was just curious as to anyone's experience with the updated programs and if it is in fact worth it performance wise as well as accessibility with Jaws. I'm running the latest JFW pro version

thanks,
Cristobal

I wouldn't suggest putting office 2007 on an XP machine. It is expensive, and the way I see it, you should just hold off.

Cost isn't an issue. I'm just concerned with functionality and accessibility.

I haven't used it myself, but I've heard that it's rather inaccessible. They redid the interface, and as I understand it instead of the menus we're used to it has something called ribbons that aren't all that useful. Has anyone actually tried using it yet? (as these are things I've only heard about.)
