We never launched any of the Office apps so there should have been no
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft nor a Microsoft user Data folder.

Since the "Remove Test Drive" app was located in the Microsoft Office Test
Drive folder that I replaced with the real Microsoft Office installation, I
don't have it anymore. If I run the "Remove Office" app on the CD, then
download the *GULP* 166MB Office Test Drive, install, run the "Remove Test
Drive" can I then safely re-install Office and expect to have a clean
install?
