Installed the New Microsoft Office 2008

Playing tonight with the new Microsoft Office for Mac. Office is pretty critical for me to interact with clients I consult with. I may be able to adapt to Pages, Numbers, and Keynote; however, my clients feel better when I don’t have to make excuses for using a Mac.

Microsoft Office has been the LAST of the major software applications used by the masses to support the new Intel processor. I’ve been waiting for this release since April 2006. I like what I see. It’s fresh. Modern. Feature rich. The only complaint I have so far: My first crash happened only 1 hour into playing with the Suite, and 15 minutes into playing with Word. :-).

    Easy solution: OpenOffice.org. It’s free, it’s open, it’s compatible, it’s stable.
