XP?

Thanks
Bill

You'll have to reinstall your Office XP - but your license should still
stick on the system so that's OK :o)

May I believe - haven't got mine through yet I don't think. If people have
got the May shipment and it's not in there, it'll be the June shipment.

Thanks. Not too bad then. Maybe install on external HD??

I installed Beta 1 into a virtual machine, so it couldn't break any
existing Office installations. I plan on doing the same thing with Beta 2
(once I manage to get the download <g>).
