Forums - General - Office 2008 for MAC USERS!!

Yes, you heard right, Office 2008 for Mac is landing on January 15th.  Just a heads up to my fellow Mac addicts, if you purchase Office 2004 now, any standard version including the student/teacher version for only 125 on Amazon, you can qualify to get the brand new 2008 Office Media Version for shipping costs alone, which retails for $500!!

Read the little window right beneath the picture of the product.  This is a steal of a deal, and I will be ordering it next week so I can receive my brand new Office 2008 Media Edition for less than $10!! No need to thank me!

Office 2004 wastes 10% of my processsor for every running Office app... with no documents open.

Seriously, I hope MS didn't forget to flush the crap this time. At least the resource wastage due to Rosetta will be gone on Intel Macs. I also hear that the UI will make more sense than Office 2007, though to be fair I've never used Office 2007.
