Snippet: Microsoft Office 2016 Preview ☇

Microsoft is offering a free preview of Office 2016, the forthcoming version of Office for the Mac, due in the second half of this year. Even though it has its critics, Office still has an important place on the Mac. From a cross-platform standpoint, the screenshots really look and feel like Office 2013 on Windows, but with the appropriate Mac-ification. I’m downloading it right now, and I’ll be excited if the feature set and usability are on par with the Windows version. The current version, 2011, is feeling a bit long in the tooth.
