Default Use Ribbon and not button bar in Outlook 2007

I've looked everywhere. How can I set Outlook 2007 to default to the Ribbon
and not the Outlook 2003-ish buttonbar? I wasn't a major proponent of the
Ribbon when I first installed office 2007 but it grew on me. Now outlook
2007 is the only app still defaulting to the old buttonbar.

Default Use Ribbon and not button bar in Outlook 2007

The main Outlook window doesn't have a Ribbon. There is a window when you
open or create new items (like for instance when creating a new email or
contact).
It is anticipated that the next version of Outlook will also have the Ribbon
in the main Outlook window.
