Office 2007 has a terrible interface
It's strange I found we pretty much had the exact opposite experience with Office 2007, the users we had try it out, as well as the IT team, found it horrible with the exception of Outlook. The ribbon interface and the unavailability of the original menu annoyed all of us, as did the wasteful amount of screen area it takes up. Outlook thankfully hadn't changed so much. We've stuck with Office 2003 here, with the freely available compatibility pack to cope with the new Office 2007 formats.

Until they make the original old menu available on Office 2007, I'm afraid it's going to be too much of a leap for existing office users for us to bother with.
