Microsoft is finalizing work on its Office System products, and an announcement on pricing and release to manufacturing (RTM) is imminent, sources familiar with the company's plans said.
The announcement could come as early as this week and will include most of the Office System applications, these sources said. RTM takes Microsoft to the final stage before commercial launch of the software scheduled later this quarter.
The Office System, a term introduced earlier this year, includes the 2003 editions of the Office Suite products Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and Access, as well as the 2003 editions of FrontPage, OneNote, Publisher, Project, Visio, InfoPath, SharePoint Portal Server, Live Communications Server, and Live Meeting.
