A list of known issues with Microsoft Office 2008
Authored by: digitol on Fri, Jan 25 2008 at 11:38PM PST
Wow. This is truly pathetic. I mean I understand that the .DOC is pretty much a standard...and Word & PowerPoint are wildly popular if not the defacto standard for business...but hell! Look at the price you pay for software which doesn't even work. COMPLACENCY SHOULD NOT BE ACCEPTABLE! If I could just get one person to use an alternative or simply use Freeware alternatives/clones like NeoOffice or ThinkFree or OpenOffice..that would be a start.

A list of known issues with Microsoft Office 2008

Well, somebody has to buy it, or we'll never get these lists of incompatibilities which, in my case at least, helped a lot. I will hang on to my clunky old Word X, which works with EndNote, and opens most of the dumb attachments I get from people too lazy or stupid to generate a pdf.

Apple should collaborate with the makers of EndNote or BookEnds or someone to integrate bibliographic software with Pages.
