I did know that. My issue is that I just CANNOT find a copy of the 64bit beta version. I can only get a 32bit, which doesnt work.

I thought you were a TechNet subscriber? I'll see if I can hunt you up a 64 bit download. Have you tried mydigitallife.com yet?

I had install problems, despite use of RevoUninstaller and Registry editing. Finally got disgusted when still a couple of office keys told me I didn't have permission to remove. Decided to take the chicken way out since my system was overdue for such and I used the DiskPart Clean command, repartitioned, etc and then installed Win 7 Ultimate and then Office 2010 Pro. Have just finished installing all other programs with 4 four full system image backups in-route. (so that could recover system back to various points in the restoration process). I think my problems originated from installing the 2010 beta on top of 2007 office instead of first doing a full removal of 2007 when installing the 2010 beta but I'll never know now. Oh yes, I did, during my frustrations, reinstall 2007 and then removed. Still the Office 2010 RTM wanted to insist that I had a previous version of 2010 installed. Oh well, system is up and running although are still a few loose ends here and there. Reinstalled WinDbg but haven't set the symbol pointer yet to fetch the newest symbols. Wouldn't it be nice if Microsoft ever learned how to install a RTM and remove all of the traces of previous versions?

I don't care what the program is. If I can't completely uninstall it, I do a clean install of the OS. There's nothing I hate more than having obsolete software on my machine. It would keep me up nights....for real!

In fact, I just did a clean install of Windows 7 when the RTM of Office was released. I didn't want ANY traces of the beta version on my rig.

MadMaxData,
I did the same thing when I went from RC to RTM on Win 7.

Awesome can't wait for this. I've seen pictures of it looks pretty clean cut.

Should Office 2010 discs be Universal, 32 and 64-bit friendly, or will I need to choose which version to buy?
