Microsoft Office X for Mac Upgrade
Amazon.com Product Description
This is an upgrade version. Microsoft Office v. X is a fully native program designed specifically for Mac OS X that harnesses the power of Office, the simplicity of Macintosh, and the stability of Unix. Office v. X has been completely redesigned with a fresh new Aqua interface. It supports all of the Mac OS X features and technologies, and has Mac-only features like Formatting Palette, Microsoft Word Data Merge Manager, Microsoft Excel List Manager, and Microsoft PowerPoint Movies. Office v. X includes Microsoft Word X, Excel X, PowerPoint X, and Entourage X, for Mac.
The modern user interface within Office v. X has been completely redesigned to include a bold new Aqua visual appearance–a perfect representation of what an application running on the new Mac OS X should look and feel like. Communication is a snap. E-mail is made even easier in Entourage X by allowing connections to Microsoft Exchange servers, Hotmail, and Mac.com so users can more efficiently manage e-mail online and off. With the integrated and improved Entourage calendar, you can easily organize your schedule, and set reminders for important events and projects.
Office v. X is compatible with Office 2001 for Mac, Office 98 Macintosh Edition, Office for Microsoft Windows, AppleWorks 6, and FileMaker Pro 5.5, so you can share work and files with anyone, whether they use a Mac or PC. Keep track of contacts with the comprehensive Address Book, which stores all of your contact information and allows you to locate an address on a map or find driving directions from Expedia.com. Improved task reporting, calendar functions, and international time zone adjustments make time management even easier. Easily access customizable templates for résumés, catalogs, newsletters, calendars, and more from the Project Gallery. The Clip Art Gallery, including hundreds of images, provides tools to make working with graphics quick and easy.

It’s good, I love Entourage much better than Apple’s e-mail and calendaring software. The others are comparable to Windows products; nothing special about them.

This is a worthy upgrade. As usual, all components mesh nicely with each other and are on par with the Window’s counterparts. Actually, PowerPoint actually has more transitions and export options on the Mac version. A worthy upgrade.

I’ve been using PC versions of Office for years. The Mac version is every bit as capable, and it’s functionality and interface are very similar, making for an easy and seamless transition between the two versions. I actually prefer the Aqua interface of the Mac version. I do wish that Access and Visio were available, but apart from their absence, I find nothing else lacking.

It’s indeed the best from Microsoft. I only use Word and Entourage and I must say they both are fantastic. Entourage is simply a great software that is clearly better than Outlook for Windows.

This is a great upgrade over my previous Word & Excel 98. I got the Word and Excel upgrade, but got Power Point and Entourage (a mail and calendar program) free. But, frankly, I wouldn’t upgrade if it weren’t for my employer upgrading to Office XP.
The programs have crashed a few times, but I recon that’s an OS X (10.1.2) problem. Similar problems have happened elsewhere.
