Service Pack 1 for Office 2007

Looks like Microsoft is giving us “an early present” by releasing the SP1 for Office 2007 before XMAS 😀 The first service pack for Office 2007 is suppose to be out on the 11th of December…but the link doesn’t seem to be working tonight 😦

Check out this link: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx

Hopefully when I wake up tomorrow morning (12th of Dec), the link will be working 🙂
