TriedIT - Software and Hardware News and Reviews

It looks like Office 2008 for Mac is coming along quite nicely. APC talks with some of Microsoft’s developers and gives us a few (albeit small) screen shots of what the new Office 2008 interface is going to look like. Also discussed are some new features that Office 2008 will have.

Some of the most impressive touches are Mac-only treats like Word’s Publishing Layout View with its DTP-style page layout capabilities. Images can be dragged out of iPhoto and placed directly onto the page with automatic text run-around, while excess copy on any page is automatically spilled into a linked text box that can be drawn elsewhere on that page or on the next page.

I’m looking forward to being able to try this application out. It looks like the changes are quite impressive. Check out the entire article at APC.
