What's the latest version of Office?

[OM]

I've got Office 2003.
Is this still the latest version?
Is there an Office 2005?
I can't find a more upto date version in the shops.
Thanks.

The latest version of Microsoft Office that you can purchase, install, and use is Microsoft Office 2003
Editions (a.k.a. version 11.0).

The latest version of Microsoft Office that is in development, called Microsoft Office "12", is yet to be
released to the public. To my knowledge, an official name is yet to be released.


To sum it up:
Yes, you do the latest version of Microsoft Office that is available to the public.
AND...
No, you do not the latest version of Microsoft Office because a new version is in development.


Take your pick.
