Question on Office 2007 size
Dan 4/10/2007 5:26:03 PM
Does anyone know why Office Professional 2007 seems to have more
capabilities/applications than prior versions of office, but seems to be
smaller in size on the installation disk? The last version of Office I
purchased was 2000, and it had two installation disks. Are they bundling
things differently or does it grab some of the required files off the web.
Just curious.

Thanks!

Dan

Hi Dan,

MS Office Professional also has two CDs. The second one contains the MS Outlook Business Contact Manager and MS Office Accounting
Express.

Office 2000 had up to four CDs. The 2nd one had MS Office Drawing and MS Office Small Business Tools, Publisher and a lot of
clipart.
Office 2007 ships with very little clipart.
