I just wanted to say that when the ribbon first came out I was in college for computer programming and I HATED it. Especially because it violated a lot of general windows standards for where to find things in menus and toolbars that I had recently adopted as gospel.

Now about a decade later I find myself on the business side of things writing software specifications and justifying actions through statistics. Most of my day is spent in Word and Excel and now that I actually use it I've come to appreciate how it basically consolidates the menu bar with the tool bar.

Again, not so much of a question but I guess I'll ask one anyway. Has there been much discussion to allow a "classic view" for casual/traditional users of Office and Excel products. Also are there any plans to change the ribbon to where it'll take me another decade to accept these changes?

Thanks!

Thanks!

After I posted that I found it interesting that Word also doesn't keep items highlighted so I think this is a more general office "feature"

What is your opinion on games which try to accommodate both flat screen players and VR players?

Personally as a player I'm very skeptical when I see a game which is for both flat screen and VR. I feel like concessions are made to make both experiences work and you're left with a game which is not the best that it can be on either a flat screen or in VR.
