Perhaps one of the things that changed the face of computing altogether is the appearance of office applications that you just cannot live without. Think of how complicated your work would be without MS Word to help you create documents and letters, MS PowerPoint to assist you in making persuasive presentations, MS Access to make databases and forms for business, MS Excel in generating graphs, charts, and tables while using figures and numbers in gearing up company decisions, and other applications such as Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, and others to name a few. With the appearance of the new Office 15 Beta being available for preview, there are 10 things to expect with Microsoft Office 2013 even if you have not installed it into your PCs or laptops yet.

All you need to have is a Windows Live ID in order to have your settings brought along with you, even if you are using someone else’s computer.

8. Requirements Will Be More Demanding

Expect that since the new MS Office will provide better performance and look to the office user, more demanding requirements will be asked in order to make every application smooth sailing, together with the OS that makes it shine better. Processor speed now needs to be about 1GHz or greater, RAM now demands 1GB for 32-bit and twice in 64-bit, Windows 7 or 8 can run it (yup, Windows XP and Vista have to pass on this one), graphics should be on DirectX10, and you should have a disk space of 3.5GB.

6. Business Solutions Will Be More Adaptable

5. Other Systems Will Take Benefit

It is part of reality that not all users prefer to use Windows Mobile, or a Windows PC just to get themselves going. However, since there are many users that recognize the functionality and value of MS Office in everyday activity, others like Mac users, and even Android or iOS owners should be more than happier that the Office 2013 will also be available to them.

Microsoft done one of the best things when it comes to making people excited and making MS Office 2013 the next buzz in town. Imagine that they have conducted market and consumer previews, only to have the downloaded copy become obsolete where all data, including settings, and other personal stuff will be deleted.
