I am considering installing the pack on the non Office 2007 machines here. But before doing so, is it worth it? Sure, without it, those with Office 2003 can't read files from Office 2007. But then what is the market penetration of 2007? What is the probability of receiving a Office 2007 file?

until it is needed and then install it.

At my place of work, I have had to install it on dozens of systems because people got tired of responding saying to send it in a different format (like .pdf).

But, at home, I never bothered, and have not received any new file formats.

Most people tend to save files in 2003 format anyhow but in saying that if you have a SMS server why bother waiting just send it out.

I've survey results that indicate 2007 to be used by 24% of the US. Not sure if that is truly representative though.
