In Short: “Dude, you just got Vista-ed!”
Like many Vista users going back to XP, I went from 2008 to 2004. Office 2004 is actually faster (in my experience) and more stable than 2008. This is the Vista for the Mac — something so bad you want to downgrade. I was so quick to downgrade I didn’t take screenshots of Office 2008.
Ironically enough, I started writing this from Word 2008 for Mac and was too annoyed with the lack of speed that was in Office 2008. I was excited that Microsoft was going to be releasing a Universal Office Suite for the Mac – having used Office 2004 on an Intel-based Mac, well, doing work was nowhere near responsive as its Windows counterpart.
