This statement is too broad for the Office suite as a whole.

A Word 2000 training guide from California State University, Northridge says: "By default, all text in your document will be displayed and printed using the Times New Roman typeface in 10-point type size." But a Microsoft Knowledge Base article specifically for Excel 2000 says: "The default font that is used by Excel 2000 is 10-point Arial."

So while Word 2000 defaulted to Times New Roman, 10 pt, Office 2000 did not have one universal default font across all programs. The blanket claim that "The default font was Times New Roman, 10 pt." is therefore incorrect as written.

Microsoft's own Office 2000 Registration Wizard materials contradict the claim that users were required to do this via the Internet.

In Microsoft's December 9, 1998 Office 2000 anti-piracy announcement and accompanying fact sheet, the company says customers could register "via e-mail, the Internet, postal mail, fax or telephone" and that users could choose between "five different methods for registering: Internet, e-mail, postal mail, fax or phone." Microsoft repeated the same point in a February 10, 2000 announcement, saying customers could register anonymously "via the Internet, fax or telephone" or provide limited information to receive the installation number via "e-mail or postal mail."

So the Internet was the default or easiest option, but it was not the only allowed method. The article's wording is therefore incorrect.

Microsoft's own launch announcement from June 7, 1999 says Office 2000 was "available in the retail channel later this week on June 10". Contemporary coverage also described June 7 as the formal launch date and said the product would hit retail shelves on Thursday, June 10, 1999.

So June 7, 1999 was the launch announcement date, but Microsoft's published retail availability date was June 10, 1999.
