In Pictures: Microsoft Office 2013 beta

Microsoft has released a beta version of its upcoming Office 2013 suite. We take a tour of the revamped interface and the most useful new features.

Although the Ribbon is turned on by default, you can make it go away by clicking a small icon on the screen's upper right.

When you do that, not only does the Ribbon go away, but so does everything else except the content area. The result is more screen real estate, which lets you focus on the work in front of you rather than on the application's interface.
