An early look at Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac by BGR offers initial impressions and a large screenshot gallery.
Each application has had its UI completely overhauled as Microsoft has made the wise decision to redo the entire layout of the application suite. Instead of the awful configuration found in Office for Mac 2008, 2011 draws from both Office 2007 and Office 2010 for Windows. In fact, it did such a good job that we can’t think of a reason why someone who is used to one OS wouldn’t be able to jump into the other and get work done in Office.
The BGR was impressed with most of the suite; however, they felt Outlook fell short. Although they said, "it’s definitely the best and most powerful email client we’ve ever used on OS X" the site was disappointed with how much more difficult it was to use than the Windows version.
You can take a look at a few screenshots below or hit the link for the complete gallery and review.
