So, Liv, were you a regular user of a previous version of Office? I'm  
curious if the new menus are better suited for newer Office users who  
aren't bogged down in the old ways Office forced you to do things or  
not? I'd be interested to see the differences measured in time,  
effort, and satisfaction from old and new office with inexperienced  
and power users.

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In practice, they are not.
