This isn't late-breaking or even news worth investing in but I'm sure there are some individuals out there curious about the upcoming Microsoft Office 2003 software package and 'just what makes it so different'.

I am waiting for my copy from work. We have been told they are going to get us all a copy of it......

OpenOffice.org 1.1 is actually quite nice too... I especially like that it requires much less disk space than Microsoft's products, so I can install it anywhere. It also opens Microsoft Office documents really accurate, and it's improving constantly.

Best of all, it's free and opensource.

Yeah I also switched to OpenOffice.org (currently I run 1.1 RC3) on all my computers at home. Saves me a lot of money. And what I like about it is the export to PDF function and it also creates much smaller files. And offcourse it runs on Linux too.
