Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac is Delayed – Ho Hum

Normally I am excited about software updates, especially when it’s a jump to the next version. But when I saw that Office 2008 for the Mac will be delayed until January, I barely flinched for two reasons:

1. The previous version of Office which I’m using now is fine for my needs.

2. I’m slowly migrating to using Pages. In fact, most of the time for offline writing I am using Bean, a great little freeware text editor.

I could get a little excited if I was in an office using it, but for my needs she just doesn’t thrill me like she used to.
