Reviews of the Microsoft Office for Mac 2008
-
CNET Review
The Good: Microsoft Office for Mac 2008 offers good looks that encompass deeper features than other Mac productivity software; business users get full Word mail merge, robust Excel spreadsheets, and better tools in Entourage; amateur desktop publishing features more polished documents; runs on Intel-based Macs.
The Bad: Microsoft Office for Mac 2008 is pricey; saves work in new file formats by default; Excel drops Visual Basic support; features don't match the depth of those in Office 2007 for Windows.
The Bottom Line: Office for Mac 2008 may be the best pick for business users, but most people can get by with less costly alternatives.
