The keyboard shortcuts from 2003 should all work in 2007.
I thought 2007 had the blue background, white text mode, but I can't
find the option for it right now. Maybe someone else knows whether it
still has it or not.
You could switch to draft mode in 2007 and then minimize the ribbon by
either using CTRL-F1 or double-clicking a tab (the same operation will
reverse it). Then the ribbon will be more like a menu.

I've just purchased Office home and student 2007 to get the new onenote and
powerpoint, and am testing out Word 2007. Aside from the shock of the ribbon,
etc. (is there a way to use the old shortcut keys?) there are two things that
are vital to my ability to use Word as I want: the blue background, white
text option that is there in Word 2000 and 97, and full screen editing mode
as in 97 and 2000. In 2000 I have assigned ctrl alt V to ToggleFull, which
gets me into a mode when all I see on the screen is the text I am working on
in draft mode. Are there any equivalents of these functions in 2007.
