Yup, you're right. I don't have printed proof to confirm, but was mentioned Paul Thurrott in the most recent Windows Weekly podcast.
Wait, Microsoft worries about OS X?
But anyways, thanks for finally fixing it! How about people with Leopard??
more than most other companies do. Microsoft mouse always works perfectly, unlike Logitech that probably never completed their OSX drivers.
2004 WORKS under snow leopard with Rosetta
I did an inplace upgrade to snow leopard on my imac running leopard with Office 2004 and it actually runs BETTER and faster than before. I used to get delays in scrolling before but seamless now.

Good to see Microsoft cares about Apple and Mac OS X.
I wonder what would happen if MS ever decided to stop making MS Office for the Mac. With almost everyone that I've helped switch over to Apple computers, being able to use Word and Excel has been one of their biggest concerns.

Word 2007. Stand alone. Still in stock at Amazon.
And the injunction is on hold while Microsoft appeals, so they can still sell it as I understand it.
Just an FYI.
LOL! There's not a damn thing any legal entity on earth is ever gonna do to stop Microsoft.

As microsoft says it, they used a correct implementation of an apple window type that apple didn't think of when implementing spaces. Sounds pretty fair to me.
So, I must say, it is a real pleasure having spaces work for office- probably my favorite thing I've noticed about snow leopard so far.
My source is Leo Laporte on This Week In Tech.
Well, same difference
Leo does the Windows Weekly with Paul Thurott; he probably mentioned it on TWiT two days after Paul said it. 
It's great to see that they fixed the issue with Office, but even better than that, they fixed the issue with Spaces and YouTube!
If I'm watching a video fullscreen on Youtube, and need to check something else, I usually hit F8 to zoom out to my spaces...problem was, when you got back to the browser window, the video would restart.
Thankfully that hasn't happened AT ALL. Nice job, Apple!

Is it just me, or did anyone else have a problem with notebook view? It kept crashing every time I tried to create a new page or convert an existing page.
I just upgraded Flash and it seemed to fix the problem.
Fix the speed problems and "Fix" (As in Vet "Fix") entourage. iWork hits a nasty vibe once in a while but the speed makes up for it.
