After several Windows 7 builds leak, now its turn of Office 2010. Technical Preview of Office 2010 has been leaked and available for download on torrent sites. Both x86 and x64 versions are available.

Thanks to "Ars Technica", here are some screenshots:

Splash Screen:

Office 2010 splash screen is animated and contains "Minimize" and "Close" buttons.

Ribbons:

The first thing you'll notice in Office 2010 is, application window contains glass in ribbon headers as well, so now you get more glass.

Also there are no borders around toolbar buttons.

One more thing! The Office ORB (big round button at top-left) no longer shows menus. Now in Office 2010, when you click on it, it shows a page having the same menuitems like Open, Save, Options, etc.

Some More Important Changes:

Microsoft Outlook also contains ribbons
Microsoft Outlook gets Jumplist support in Windows 7
Microsoft Office Groove 2007 has been renamed to SharePoint Workspace 2010
All buttons in ribbons can be customized
Ribbon buttons for each Office application have different colors

Hey VG, I read the article from your newsletter but can't get what it really is...Does it have more features than Office 2007.....and ore more question-
Is the torrent is illegal to download? Well I'll not do so.
By the way thanks for the information......Keep going on VG......Thx...... :)

Just curious - 2010 is using the same filetypes as 2007, right? We won't be jumping around like we did from .doc to .docx?

I doubt they'd do that again so soon, but hey... it'd be annoying.
VG

^^ Yep. atm the file format is same.

@Rohan
Its a new version of Office and it'll definitely have better features than 2007. Regarding downloading it via torrents is illegal for sure.

I sometimes feel that the leaks are intentional. Just to create hype about the product.
VG

^^ Who knows? May be? ;)
