 License allows an additional laptop install January 31, 2008
27 out of 35 found this review helpful
The Office 2008 license allows installation on both a desktop system and a laptop. It also allows you to transfer the license to new systems, over time. Unlike the Windows version, there is no product activation requirement.
From the license:
* "You may install another copy on a portable device for use by the single primary user of the licensed device."
* "You may uninstall the software and install it on another device for your use ..."
 The worst MIcrosoft product in the history January 31, 2008

This version of Office is a down-grade from 2004. MS omitted vital parts of the system making it unuseful for students/teachers/scientists
1. Excel - unuseful as described in earlier statements (mainly problems with using analysis and for some reason they emoved possibility of using real error bars (cutom)... move impossible to understand
2. Powerpoint - decides for you what you can group /ungroup etc.
3. Word - incompatible with reference managers such as endnote
The only part that's a bi improved is entorague...
bottom line... I deleted the software I purchased and I am using 2004 again !!!!!!
I WANT MY MONEY BAAAACCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!
 Don't waste your money January 26, 2008

As a big Excel user, I eagerly preordered and purchased this program, anticipating faster speed since it would run natively on my intel mac, and looking forward to being able to handle spread sheets with more than 65000 rows of data. Well I got one thing. What I didn't know was that I would be trading Visual basic support for this.
Not only have I lost all of my macros that I have written over the years, but it still runs as slow if not slower than Excel 2004, IT hangs, crashes, and corrupts files. I had to place a support call to identify a bug in the text import wizard, which is costing me 1 of my two free support calls. The icon buttons have been moved from the floating toolbars to the top of the spreadsheet window, so that unless you leave the window wide enough to stretch across you your screen you can't access them except through a drop down menu. Need I go on? The only reason I gave it a second star is for the increased number of rows.
Highly Unstable....Wasted my money January 26, 2008

Got the upgrade. very slow, crashed many times!
Entourage 2008 is the worst email client ever. There is NO VBA Support. This is a complete RIP-OFF from Microsoft. They should stop making software for MAC.
NO VBA!!!!!!!!!!! January 20, 2008

If you do any programming or statistical analysis with Office, stay away from this ripoff!!! VBA and the Analysis Toolpak are gone -- and of course, you won't find this out until AFTER you've wasted your money!!!!!
Update: Accidentally added arrows from Word 2008 to an existing Word 2004 document; now it can't be opened on any PC, and it won't print either. Excel 2008 will not save any documents on the grounds that I don't have enough hard drive space; in fact, I have over 600 GB of space available. ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
