I'm pretty sure they're trying to retire the 201X moniker from Office. Office for RT, and the 2013 final copies on MSDN, all lack year marks on the loading screen. It's just Word now, not Word 2013. Basically, they're trying to brand Office 365 as the subscription, with Office as the software suite, which can be part of the subscription. Of course, the box art from October still has the year: http://www.neowin.net/images/uploaded/1_office2013.png http://www.neowin.net/images/uploaded/1_office2013.png But I think that the subscription-based model will mean that there won't be a version you receive. You just always get the newest one, whatever it may be.
