Two interesting reviews of Microsoft Office 2008 for the Mac, one from Paul Thurrott and the other from MacInTouch.I have also had a peek at the software and it looks pretty good.
I have not upgraded my version of Microsoft Office for a while and I think I will do it this time.
Been using OpenOffice now for several years on windows and linux, and I can’t say I miss MSO at all. Of course I have very basic needs in office productivity — I never make powerpoint presentations and only basic spreadsheets. MSO pollutes the OS on Windows machines. It’s a scourge.
BTW, the new Office 08 for mac is STILL not supporting unicode!
