There are more than enough postings here to tell you about the good stuff with Microsoft Office 2013. But understanding the pitfalls with a product are just as important. Unbeknownst to most people Office 2013 will not be compatible with Windows XP or Vista; not that anyone cares for Vista. So if anyone is still running the XP Operating System, it’s about time to upgrade to Windows 7 or 8. You should also note that the new software will also require a computer with at least one gigabyte of RAM and a processor speed of at least a gigahertz. Sound like normal specs on a computer, but if your computer is more than 6 years old, it might not be compatible. Finally consumers should keep in mind that the touch features are optimized for Windows 8. Windows 7 user might want to also upgrade their OS to fully utilize the benefits of Office 2013.
