Office 2000 is out of official support and in extended support mode, meaning
that only critical security problems will be fixed. You may want to
purchase Office 2003 rather than wait for Office 2007 (early 2007 retail
release planned) if you like the older interface and do not want to make a
huge jump.
See
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/default.mspx for an overview of
the major changes to Office in the next version.
