RTM means "Retail to Marketing" . In other words, it simply means "ready to be sold to the consumers" . |

| 879396 | 2010-04-26 07:24:00 | Nope don't think so Jamuz, it means "Release To Manufacture" this means customers are going to be the beta testers, any glaring mistakes will be hot-fixed on MS Tuesdays and after a while when there are enough hot-fixes to be a nuisance Service Packs will be released. Inevitable really and probably a good common sense solution since as we all know perfection or any form of it is simply not available in the real world. |

| 879397 | 2010-04-26 07:25:00 | RTM means "Retail to Marketing". In other words, it simply means "ready to be sold to the consumers". Also means "Release to Manufacturing", basically the same thing :) RTM The term "release to manufacturing" or "release to marketing" (both abbreviated RTM)—also known as "going gold"—is used to indicate that the software has met a defined quality level and is ready for mass distribution either by electronic means or by physical media. RTM usually means the software is actually released; it would in most cases mean that the software is being released to manufacturers, for pre-installation on ready machines, or for the manufacturer to adjust the software for their manufactured hardware and settings. The term does not define the delivery mechanism, it only states that the quality is sufficient for mass distribution. The deliverable from the engineering organization is frequently in the form of a gold master CD used for duplication or to produce the image for the web. RTM happens prior to general availability (GA) when the product is released to the public. |

| 879399 | 2010-04-26 08:13:00 | I've got Office 2002 I would like to get 2010 (even if it does not have a killer feature) just to be a bit more up to date, and to hope there are a few useful features. |
