I’m subscribed to Mac Mojo; a combo blog written by the folks who make Microsoft Office for Mac. I don’t read it very often because it’s mostly ads in blog form or some other self-wankery, but today the headline caught my eye:
“HA!” I thought. They couldn’t have expressed my feelings more accurately. Alas, they meant something else: “BFD! Big Friday Deals. Best Friday Destinations…” etc etc. Now that OpenOffice is Good Enough, I don’t know why anyone would spend money on the MS one.
Yesterday I got to try Office 2007 for Windows, and my first impression was “Wow, somehow they managed to take up even MORE of my goddamn screen with bullshit menu bars!” Ctrl-Q. So if 2008 for Mac is anything like that, well, SMB.
