Microsoft said last month that it was delaying the launch of Office 2008 to January. The home version, which is designed for non-business use, can be installed on up to three Macs and sells for $149. The Home and Student version includes the four main programs, but not the ability to connect to Exchange or the Automator actions. A $499 Special Media Edition also includes Expression Media, a digital media cataloguing program that Microsoft acquired from its 2006 purchase of iView Multimedia.īoth the Special Media Edition and the standard Office for Mac also include the ability to connect to an Exchange Server, as well as some actions for Automator, Mac OS X's built-in scripting tool. The standard version, known simply as Office 2008 for Mac, includes PowerPoint, Word, Excel and Entourage and will sell for $399. Although the release of the next version of Office for the Mac has slipped into next year, Microsoft is ready with the pricing and packaging options.
