A great leap forward Review ofMicrosoft Office V. X for Mac Standart Edition Complete packageby
iMacfan
Advantages: Very compatible, easier to use and more features Disadvantages: Appleworks is still easier to use, and its very expensive.
...have a good use of Microsoft Office for Mac OS X, and here are my thoughts:
Price - Now, as with all versions of office, this is steep, at about 350 pounds new, and 150 for upgrade. For me, as a student it still costs over a hundred pounds - a big sum of money for a Medical student who isn't going to have a full time job for five years!
Features - These are much better. It still lacks Access, but once you get past that, it is very powerful, including ... ...a really complete set of features, or just have the money to spend, you could do a great deal worse than buying this program (As long as you use Mac OS X). - And that's coming from someone who thinks that Microsoft is the root of all evil! ...

Manufacturer's product description
Office v. X for Mac combines the power of word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, e-mail and personal information manager (PIM) programs with the stability and reliability of Mac OS X. The suite has been designed with core Mac OS X technologies, including Aqua, Sheets and Quartz, built directly into the product. New feature enhancements also have been made to Entourage X, the e-mail application, and PIM, as well as to Word X, Excel X and PowerPoint X. Each of the applications in Office v. X includes a bold and classy new Aqua appearance that is in keeping with the Mac OS X user interface. All the components of the Office v. X user interface - from dialog boxes to toolbar icons - have been Aquified, offering a smoother and cleaner appearance as well as enhanced discoverability. Sheets have replaced select dialog boxes and alerts in Office v. X, enabling users to multitask within or between applications. When a user clicks to save a Word document, for instance, a Sheet appears in place of a dialog box. The user can choose to open a different Word document or continue working in another application, without having to complete the save first. Quartz 2-D Drawing technology in Office v. X makes it easy to create graphically rich and compelling documents that look truly professional. It allows users to add anti-aliased lines and shapes to give documents a smooth and finished appearance. Quartz also enables true transparency, so shapes, objects and pictures can be layered to reveal items behind them. In addition to Mac OS X technologies built into Office v. X, the suite delivers features that enable users to complete projects faster and more easily than ever before. As the cornerstone of Office v. X, Entourage X boasts a refined, easier-to-use interface, improved support for Internet standards, and several new features to help users manage e-mail and personal information. Other new features in Office v. X include Multi-Selection and Clear Formatting in Word X, AutoRecover and Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts in Excel X, PowerPoint Packages in PowerPoint X, as well as many more improvements.
Before I start this review I'm going to apologise for how long it is likely to be, but to properly review such a huge product as an operating system is going to take quite a lot more than a few paragraphs. To make it easier for you to find the... more
When I bought my laptop it came with just about nothing of use on it I didn't have Word, Excel, PowerPoint or anything - oh I had Notepad, but if anyone has ever tried writing an essay on that they will know that it is more or less impossible. It just... more
