Office for Mac
« on: October 07, 2010, 05:23:14 PM »
It appears that my copy of Micro$hite's Office for Mac is cattle trucked  Banghead ... well, at least the Excel part is and from a quick scour around it's not uncommon  cry:

I'll have to buy the new '08 version  redface: with a free upgrade to the '11 version when that appears ...  noooo:
