Rating: - Blah.
Office 2008 is ok. The interface is normal. It doesn't crash all that much. It is quite compatible. Its all right. Blah.

If only Microsoft hadn't lost their nerve and made something as lovely as the PC Office 2007. I'm a dual user and find myself drifting back to my PC when I want to do anything work related. And that is a shame. It's just like the old days - Mac for media fun and PC for serious work and gaming. Some things never change. Not much point upgrading from 2004. ... Read More

Rating: - Ideal for creating windows compatible documents...
I am by no means a computer genius but talking from a novice point of view I have to say that after purchasing this product 3 months ago I have been perfectly happy with it. I previously had the office 2004 for MAC which admittedly was perhaps a little more user friendly and generally straight forward, but decided to upgrade to the new Office 2008 when I purchased a new iMac.

I generally only use Word and Excel, occasionally Powerpoint, and they serve the purpose that they are there ... Read More

Rating: - Mixed bag, Intel native good, no VBA bad.
I'm a fairly casual home user of Office, I used Entourage all the time, Word infrequently and the rest of the package almost never (mostly as readers of Powerpoint and Excel docs). I bought this because I bought an Intel MacBook and iMac. The emulated performance of Office 2004 was painfully slow.

Reading the reviews people seem to have had real problems with stability, these seem to have been corrected by a series of fairly large upgrades. I've had no real problems there.

Rating: - So Slow
It looks good but not the same as before so there is some relearning required. But the biggest surprise of all is that it is frustratingly slow. I have iWorks but bought this because my wife kept saying that MS office was better, but even she now admits it's not.

Only buy this if you absolutely have to, or if you have more patience than me.

Rating: - Don't upgrade - VBA is off, quite slow
This product should have never been released. It miss a fundamental subset of Excel, VBA. Suddenly all macros stopped to work after I upgraded, and the unthinkable was correct, yes Microsoft has removed VBA, even from the help! after some online research to confirm, I removed it and re-installed 2004. This is not to mention the huge resources consumption or the new improved, or should say, ugly interface.
