The Office 2010 Technical Preview uses an Office Logo button similar to the one in the Office 2007 applications that have the ribbon interface instead of any sort of File Menu.
This was one of the major complaints about the Ribbon interface when Office 2007 was released.
For whatever functions might be buried underneath inconsistent menus, the File Menu provides every application, whether a Microsoft product or not, the same Big 4 functions: New, Open, Save, Print.
When that went away, everything else got lost.
The Office Icon replaces the file menu, adds to it, and makes it better and more usable — none of which matters if you can’t find it.
Turns out that users assumed the colorful little logo was, just a logo, and not a button, part of the drawback of using the “cleaner and easier” Mac like graphics instead of creating a shadow that makes a button look like, well … a button.
