One interesting note, a Yosemite-like version of Office will bring the Mac and Microsoft versions even closer together since both Apple and Microsoft have adopted the same flat UI meme. Given their cloud strategy, I’m sure there are many surprises yet to come with Office 2016, of which the price may be the least of it. Of course that doesn’t mean Microsoft won’t still break it out of the main suite and charge a premium for it, as they do with Office 2011. It’s nice to see Outlook included with the new version of Office, as Entourage once was. And they can read and write Office compatible documents if compatibility is necessary – as it usually is. They have rather antique interfaces, but they work. Yet if you do still bear a grudge, there are now a number of alternatives on the Mac. On the one hand, hating Microsoft is so 1999. Compatibility with Yosemite is hardly enough at this point since Office 2011 seems to work fine in OS X 10.10.x. That said, I’ll probably wait till Office 2016 has been reviewed by a few knowledgeable people and I have an idea whether it’s worth the effort.
OUTLOOK 2016 FOR MAC UNINSTALL UTILITY SOFTWARE
Of course, using Yosemite on your main system is also risky it, too, is beta software and hardly ready for prime time, despite the fact it’s been out for six months. Testing it with real work is just plain foolish, unless you have backup copies of that work. Remember, this is early days and it’s beta software. I would highly suggest a similar strategy for anyone thinking of taking a look at it.

I might install Office 2016 on a Yosemite test partition just out of curiosity.

You can change this by getting information on an Office document and using the Open With section to set the desired application for handling that document. Therefore, you may inadvertently trigger one Office app to open when you intend a different one.
The installation will not overwrite any prior version of Office however, do keep in mind that with multiple versions on your system, you will have more than one official handler for Office document formats.
When installed, you will see your new Office Apps as separate applications within your Applications folder, instead of being enclosed in a separate Microsoft Office subdirectory. Office 2016 will also not touch prior Office installations. The Office 2016 apps will be directly in your Applications folder, as opposed to a separate Office folder as with prior versions.
