Microsoft Visio 2000 Professional is probably the most important -must have- software for every software developer, network manager, businessman and webmaster. If you’re still wondering what you can do & draw with it simply remember yourself that a picture is better than thousand of words! Imagine the productivity increase Microsoft Visio 2000 can create in your sales team and you won't hesitate one second more to buy it! The new features combined along with the excellence of the included traditional diagram support really make it worth the buy. The new enhancements were long awaited and the fact that Visio merged with Microsoft ensure that Visio will now evolve at the same rhythm than the rest of the Microsoft Office range of products. Finally please note that a SR1 is available for Microsoft Visio 2000.
