Every wikipedia article on softwares written by the company "design science" looks exactly like an advertisement. If the company is editing its own articles, it is sad. That, coupled with the tone of the articles is a violation of several wikipedia polities, like coi, advert, notability. [[User:Deego|Deego]] ([[User talk:Deego|talk]]) 17:46, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

From usage and numerous statements from Murray Sargent et al. it looks rather like the Office 2007 Math editing capabilities are no longer based on the legacy Equation Editor. Neither the old interface nor the old layout engine are present anymore. This does (in my opinion) strongly suggest that the old code isn't used here. --Joey 23:03, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While it is true that the new Office 2007 math editing capabilities are not based on my company's Equation Editor or MathType, the "old" Equation Editor is still shipped with Office and is used to support equations in legacy documents, a preferred editing UI for some, and also because it works in many more apps than the new feature. For example, Equation Editor works in PowerPoint. Finally, Equation Editor is still shipped with Mac Office as it does not contain their new feature.
