Win7之家（ www.win7china.com）：【软媒编译】7月14日 - 微软停止Office 2000所有支持

 要不是我提起，可能很多人都已经忘了吧？Office 2000，一代元老已经快要退休了。就在微软紧锣密鼓地开发Office 2010时，就在我们为Office 2010的界面和速度惊叹时，就在我们使用Office 2007时，Office 2000已经快要离我们而去了。

7月14日，微软将正式停止对Office 2000的支持。根据惯例，微软旗下的产品都有一定的生命周期，一旦生命周期结束，微软就会停止对其支持。今年4月，微软就停止了对Windows XP的主流支持，而现在，就轮到Office 2000了。

“从今年8月1日起，微软将关闭Office的更新网站。用户将只能通过Microsoft Update进行更新。”
