You should also download the the Office 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh and
run it after you have Office 2007 Beta 2 installed.

Thanks Kerry where do I get the refresh from?

How much hard drive space does Office 2007 take with the technical
refresh included as well. It finally looks like the huge hard drives
are becoming practical for users with the new Vista and Office.

I have Vista Ultimate RC1 5728, Office 2007 Beta 2 with the TR, and
Expression Web Designer Beta 1 installed. They take up around 15 GB. I don't
know how much of that is Office. I do know I have been running those same
programs in various versions since last June and the amount of space they
use has been about the same throughout testing all the various versions.

You must have some kind of special version of Vista. It wouln't install for
me with 20GB (mostly temp files - but required). I've given it 40GB and its
quite happy. Half of that space is taken up with a few prog more than
Office 2007.

Wow, I was able to get Vista RC1 installed on a 10gb hard drive... not much
left over after the install, but it worked.

Whew, 10 gigs of hard drive space for Office 2007 -- hmm I might end up
skipping on testing that since my plate is full what with testing Vista
and work with fixing computer security issues and teaching.

Dan, the 10 gigs is what Vista takes up, not Office!! My Office Beta 2 with
the technical refresh takes up less than 500MB. (Word, Access, Excel and
Powerpoint, none of the other stuff.)

Thanks Jane. That is much more reasonable and my system can easily
handle that -- <smile>
