Regardless of whether Mac or Windows user it is fair to say that at some point you have to come with Microsoft Office. Even many die hard-anti-Windows/Mac evangelists will continue to say that there is still a product produced by the Redmond-based giant that remains the de facto standard in its field, whether or not like it. And, while Microsoft Office 2007 is available in Windows for a while longer, took a while for the latest iteration of the package to become available on the Mac. Yes, it is time for us not to our evaluative hat and take a gander at Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac and see what strange creatures live there.
In the latest version of Office for Mac was released four years ago, oddly enough called Office 2004, and was in itself a massive overhaul of its predecessor, Office 2001. Unfortunately, several problems were at the beginning of 2004 was originally intended to run on the PowerPC processor architecture, parades, and the rain, when Apple decided to adopt Intel processors instead, as we know the use of x86 (x86-64 in 64-bit systems Such as the "Leopard").
Basically, because of the PowerPC code has been compiled natively on Intel's x86-excecuting, Office 2004 to run under an emulator called Rosetta (stop me if you know any of this), keeping things simple, he was hog system resources and significantly faster (in Under terms of processor) Intel Macs run Office for the PowerPC slower than their counterparts in some cases - counter-intuitive state of affairs to say the least. Office 2008, of course, that all the posts and are encoded using the all-powerful Universal Binaries, which means that, depending on the type of processor, which will have the benefit of the best kind of code, the proverbial win-win situation.
There is, however, contributed to this decline, including the transition to the new structure of the code requires the small sacrifice of the Office 2008 development team - Visual Basic for Applications is no longer supported. This could prove to be a huge problem for companies that want to upgrade, because it is the VBA, despite the absolute actually enjoy the pain, an extremely useful tool. However, Microsoft argues, the development time to allow the VBA code in Intel would be implausibly so long as he went along with a fair number of sales if I'm any judge.
How well these behind-the-scenes changes Microsoft is also taking into account some interface for renovation, as was the case for Office 2007 for Windows. In short, before I give it to you in the following pages long, the entire look and feel just a bit more, well, Mac-like. But just to generalities can we wanted to take a specific programs do not doubt, so let us, and to venture inside. Ladies and gentlemen, please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at any time, and above all: the use of the licence.
