Software Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac

Domain Name Com's - Software : Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac


  

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Only the clueless like it
Notice that the only positive reviews of this product are from people who are either new to MS Office, new to the Mac, or both.

Microsoft's recent products are so painfully awful (such truly excruciating steps backward in quality) that perhaps both PC users and Mac users should move en masse to some alternaive, such as the open source office suites. After all, if MS cannot produce either a usable operating system (see Vista) or a usable office suite, why are we still giving them any of our business?


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Can we please be a nice Mac citizen
The installer, after finishing the installation, spewed 5 icons on my Dock and restarted it (the Dock process). This is the first Mac installer that I've seen which behaves this way. The first impression definitely makes this product come across as a rogue with little respect for a user's system. Agreed that Apple tends to be a bad Windows citizen, but I then don't remember them having a 300$ product on Windows.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Strongly consider Special Media Edition Office 2008
Although the special media edition has a higher list price (it has additional features), it can be found for cheaper through individual purchasers who got 2 copies of Office when they purchased earlier this year. You may want to check it out: Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Special Media Edition. Either version has all of the typical Office software you would expect and is far more intuitive than the prior edition.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Beyond Pathetic
The new version of Office 2008 is totally dysfunctional. Problems:
1. No data analysis tools in Excel.
2. Crashes every 5 minutes.
3. Documents scroll very slowly even when running on a new iMac. Editing graphs is so slow it's like running office on a 10-year old computer.
4. Graphing functions in Excel are incredibly hard to find graphing functions like adding labels to axes.
5. Default view and graph styles in Excel are different than previous versions.
6. XML graphics generation is buggy and produces artifacts.

All I have to say to Microsoft is thanks a lot. Thanks for the most dysfunctional pos you have ever put out. There is good news however. OpenOffice can be downloaded for free and it's very user friendly and reads and writes all office document formats.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - So buggy, even in July 2008
The primary reason I switched to the mac about 8 months ago was because Microsoft produces incredibly buggy, terrible software. Unfortunately, I sometimes need to use Microsoft Office, so I got Office for the mac. Office not only sucks on the pc, it sucks on the mac too.

My primary problem today is that it does not play nice with Spaces. My Word document is constantly zooming around to difference Spaces, without my asking it to. So, about every 10 minutes, I save and close the document, then reopen it. And it's ok for a bit, then the zooming starts again. Just ridiculous.
