Microsoft Releases Office 2008 12.2.6 and Office 2004 11.6.0 Updates

update will kill key

apparently (not speaking from experience here of course) if you have a hack of Office this latest code will require you to re-enter your license key, and if you enter the one that is a hack, it won't work.

Wait till 2011 is out, no use wasting time on 2008 even if Microsoft offers 'free upgrades' for those who recently bought Office 2008.

Thanks for the heads up. What kind of price you think I could get Microsoft Office 2011 at?

The MSRP has already been announced. The cheapest version (home and student license, 1 install) is $119, the most expensive version (business license, which includes Outlook, and allows for 2 installs) is $279. I'd be willing to guess that retailers will offer some discounts, although I wouldn't hazard a guess as to what they might be. That's all up to the retailer.

Soon be adding office 11 to my collection....office 04, office 08, office 07, office 2010. I remember paying about $209 Australian dollars for 08 but about $170 dollars for 07 admittedly that had been out a bit longer but as I recall it was always available at a cheaper price and in the last 12 months it was purchasable at some places for a lot less yet it took some time for retailers to extend even small discounts to the Macintosh product.

I forgot to say ... those prices are US$. I honestly have no idea what the pricing is in other countries. I'm on the technical team, they don't let me anywhere near the money side of things.
