Through my work I deal with or know about most of the top 100 UK companies Microsoft usage in the UK. I can't think of one off the top of my head thats using it but I will find out!

Why do you ask?

Wouldn't have thought there were too many, expensive bloatware that by default produces documents that are incompatible with previous versions of MS Office.

Agreed, the only vastly improved part of the suite is PowerPoint, which is now twice the package 2003 was. I am using it for rapid e-learning development and its very very useful for that!

I didn't really look at PowerPoint tbh but I'm sure the whole suite has some nice new features, personally I hated the new interface but some of the other lads here like, it just struck me as trying to reinvent the wheel.

Overall though there's no way it could be cost effective to upgrade to it as a corporate solution (in my bestest workspeak).
