I had thought that x64 Office had been known for a while?
Aren't the TAP folks and other testers using both x86 and x64 Office versions?

Imagine that, a beta factoid that never got out. Perhaps Office testers are better able to understand their NDA than Windows testers.

Wish that Microsoft was as niggardly with their betas of Windows that seem to leak even as they are being downloaded by "official" testers.
