I just went to the Office 2007 download area, logged in etc and saw:
" Select each product you wish to download for a download service fee of
$1.50 each " and expires in Feb 2007

The TR1 download won't do any good if you can't get Office 2007 beta 2 to
install. I loaded Vista pre RC1 and cannot get any of the 2007 Office
betas
to install. What I found interesting, Office 2003 won't install either.
I
had to go back to Office XP.

2007 Office System Beta 2 compatibility
If you are using 2007 Office system Beta 2 be sure to download the 2007
Microsoft Office system Beta 2 Technical Refresh, the most recent
update.
(The Technical Refresh is required to use Office Beta 2 with Windows
Vista
RC1.)


Here is the link for Office Refresh, however, it is currently not
available.
I am thinking that when they release Vista RC1 to the public, they will
also
release the Office update.

Hi,

Installed Office 12 Beta on a fresh installation of Vista (x86) RC1
Build
5600.
Installation suceeds but when I try to start any of the office apps I
get

"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will
notify
you if a solution is available." Only option is a "Close program"
button.

I've even tried starting them in XP Compatability mode but get the
same
error.

Office 2003 wors fine though
