interview with analysts at the Wall Street Journal. Keen readers will notice that Ballmer called it Office 14, and not Office System 2009 which it
could possibly be named on release. 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.
