My cousin in Tibet is an illiterate subsistence farmer. By accident of birth, I was raised in the west and have a Ph.D. The task of our generation is to cut through the illusion that we inhabit separate worlds. Only then will we find the heart to rise to the daunting but urgent challenges of global disparity. —Losang Rabgey, The Way I See It

Recursive Office 2008 Zen

Posted by Justin under Mac View recent posts with the tag Mac on Technorati 

I’m using Office 2004 on my MacBook Pro and am finding it a decent, though far from excellent, product. Entourage in particular seems to need work, so I’m considering upgrading to 2008. PowerPoint 2008 is significantly better on the MacBook Pro, as it’s the first version (to my knowledge) in which you can view different things on your laptop screen and the projector (for example, so you can see your notes on your screen, but only the slides show up on the projector).

Today in the Apple Store for Education, I found this product listing for Office 2008:

all you need for office 2008 is office 2008

Huh?

I guess all you need for Office 2008 is Office 2008. Nice.

Incidentally, the “home and student edition” does not support Exchange Server, which is something I need, so I’ll be paying the full price despite being an education user.
