Microsoft delivers Office 2016 to subscribers on the slow train
Microsoft yesterday issued Office 2016 to Office 365 commercial subscribers who had adopted the slower release cadence, which the company called "Current Branch for Business."
Those customers may begin downloading and installing the same Office 2016 client applications -- Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Word and others -- that debuted in September 2015.
