What works
Dutch version tested.
Starting the setup. Enter username, initials, left company name empty. Accepting the EULA. Clicking "Install now" to install everything with default options. The installation completes and Access, Excel, Powerpoint and Word can now be started. So the installer appears to have installed all the applications without problems.
.doc and .xls files can now be opened directly from nautilus with Word/Excel as well. Perhaps you need to run Word/Excel first for it to pick up the new app.
All screens appear to be rendered correctly.
What does not

Additional Comments
Outlook cannot be started right after the installation because Outlook Express 4.1 or higher (note: Outlook is not the same as Outlook Express) is nowhere to be found, that's not wine's fault. I just didn't install Outlook Express 4.1 or higher prior to the installation because I couldn't be bothered. Call it human error.
