Microsoft Office 2008 Update Brings Speed Increases and New Features

It's not sarcasm, it's facts. The pattern is precisely that -- 3 to 4 years. It's the same for PC (2000 - 2003 - 2007 - 2010).
They have a 36-month cycle, the reason it ended up taking 4 years the last time was that the 2008 version was delayed. It was slated to be Office:mac 2007. So the next one will be 2011 if all goes according to plan and 2012 if not. But it will NOT be 2009, that's for sure.
I <3 Pages
I find this halarious because a month or 2 ago I would have been extatic. "Unfortunatly" I just discovered some new stuff about pages that just makes me like it more. So now I only use Pages and have forgotten about word Long live

I give you this, Latex has quite a learning curve
However with this dissertation project of yours this learning time is well spend because other than with a GUI-Tool you can separate most of the formatting requirements from the actual writing process. This can be immensely helpful if you need to finish on time - because you know what it will look like all along and you can focus on writing until the last day.
You still need to install Latex through. I would recommend getting BasicTeX-2008 from here http://www.tug.org/mactex/morepackages.html
If you have enough disk space you could also download the whole package, however it is 1,2 Gig...
You should also at least get Bibdesk http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/
PM me, if you have further questions...
Native Exchange Support!
When? When? When?
The latest Exchange Server doesn't work natively with the latest client for it. It is and remains embarrassing. I know there are the IIS & ECS setting workarounds, which only works after applying them freshly. But why would one need them at all?

Yay
Downloading at 2 MB/sec, but the package doesn't show up yet in the AutoUpdate utility, just on the web.
There is. You need to click that link in that post and it will be on the right side. Not in AutoUodate or anywhere else other than that link. Bad syncing Microsoft
INSTALLING!!!
Description:
"This update contains several improvements to enhance stability and performance. It also introduces a new application called the Microsoft Document Connection and includes new features in Microsoft PowerPoint 2008 for Mac. In addition, this update is the minimum Office for Mac requirement for installing Microsoft Entourage 2008 for Mac, Web Services Edition."
Yay
You appear to be downloading this:
Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.1
Because I see no reference to SP2 on the webpage.
Still no Entourage EWS!! Come one MS. You have had the beta since Jan. Release the thing already!!
The S stands for speed.

I've seen it and downloaded it. It's 297MB. It only seems to appear on the newest list on the side and then only every second refresh.
My apologies for doubting you. If the MacBU website came with a decoder ring, I'd be in business.
