    Seriously?

    Even at their dumbest, Microsoft wouldn't release a new operating system that wouldn't run their current Office suite.

    Window 7 is based off the same kernal as Vista, so in general, if it works in Vista it will work in 7.

    At least your question has been answered. I believe Office 2007 is fully compatible with Windows 7, including jump list support.

    I was thinking the same thing when people kept calling on Microsoft to completely rewrite Windows. Throwing out the baby with the bath water.

    Anyone confirm that Office XP works with Win 7? If the "if it works in vista it will work in W7" is correct, then I presume it will work.
