The roadmap reveals a milestone of year end 2009 but the dates aren't very clear: In the roadmap you can see that Office 14 is clearly identified as Microsoft Office System 2009.

Many people thought that Microsoft would time the new Office revision along with Windows 7's release, as many businesses prefer to upgrade to a new OS and a new Office suite at the same time, but Ballmer has dashed all thoughts of this happening.

'Office 14' to be more Web-friendly, Gates says

Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates talked publicly for the first time on Monday about the next big Office release, code-named Office 14, which he said will give users new ways to access their applications online.



Microsoft won't provide the full functionality of Office online, but it will offer limited capabilities to view and edit the data in Office applications. It already does this for its Outlook e-mail client with a product called Outlook Web Access, and it will offer similar capabilities for other applications in Office 14, Gates said in a speech at the Microsoft Office System Developer Conference in San Jose, California.



"Outlook Web Access is not the full version of Office, but if you want to go into a kiosk or an Internet cafe and browse and connect, it gives you plenty of functionality," he said. "As we look at all the modules , we have in mind the equivalent of Outlook Web Access," Gates said.

Confirmed: Office 2010 will be 32-bit and 64-bit

Recently Neowin reported that Office 14 (or Office 2010, you choose) will most likely be shipping in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavors. Well, as Ars Technica is reporting, this is fully confirmed by Microsoft themselves. According to Ars Technica, an email exchange between them and a Microsoft spokesperson revealed that, "Yes, Office will have two separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Office 2010 will be the first to do this." This means that from now on, those running 64-bit versions of Windows will not longer have to emulate a 32-bit environment to have a working Office; it'll be fully compatible, with all the benefits 64-bit brings.
