It consists of nine applications: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Outlook, Publisher, OneNote, SharePoint and InfoPath. The size occupied on disk is about eight megabytes for a typical installation. Note that there will be 64-bit version.

Outlook takes, finally, the style ribbon common to other Office programs. Any changes aimed at improving the organization and reduce the typical chaos of post office, appointments and tasks. Proof of this is the storage system for conversations, similar to G-Mail:

Ideal for endless series of responses.
