Office 2008 for Mac is even worse than 2004 – seriously, WTF? It’s like Microsoft for Mac team really was a rent-a-coder project run by the lowest bidder. Let’s hope the next update, Microsoft Office for Mac 2008, doesn’t suck. Ctrl+U? Who in the hell invented this shit? Perhaps the Office for Mac team was sequestered on the moon during development and was only fed rice krispies, 7UP and crack.Instead of pressing F2 to edit a cell, you press Ctrl+U. In addition to ridiculous unusable default placement of GUI elements ( here’s the full version of the above thumbnail), other interface elements are simply alien. Excel for OS X isn’t as bad as Entourage, but it is a significant downgrade from the PC version.Entourage barely accomplishes its core task of being a Mac OS X Exchange client. Unfortunately, it’s more like Outlook’s bastard child which MS kept locked in the closet to starve. It was supposed to be the Mac version of Outlook. You don’t need to load the entire Visual Basic for Applications runtime library in order for me to write a letter to my grandma. Look MS, this is a friggin’ rich text editor.
