Summary: The best of the best.
Review: I am teaching in college since 25 years. We always used Macintosh.
At home, I have a iMac. I used Office 2001,
which is a very good product. Then I had to install APPLE X, then I
bought Microsoft Office X (including Word X) for teacher. I am filled. It
took only 30 minutes to install it. Immediately I felt comfortable.
There are many improvements. And the items that I used more were
preserved, and improved. Word is very pretty, powerful, more powerful,
more quickly. All my documents of Office 2001 opened such as they
were. I did not lose any data. And the connection with the Web is the best to. I recommend it to my colleagues at work.
Thank you Microsoft.

Summary: what can I use to upgrade...???
Review: I have office 4.2.1 will this count as an upgrade???? I don't want to buy this and find out that it won't! I hate office, but love entourage and if I qualify for the upgrade, it's actually cheaper than buying entourage on its own!

Summary: Word X--just get it
Review: I know the final version is still a few weeks away, BUt based on the test Drive version available now, word X for OS X holds ALOT of promise! With OS X 10.1, the whole app uses the same Aqua guidelines and features very well--the dialog boxes, icons, the way you can use and edit small images in your word docs, etc. Plus, you don't have to hear the old "send document x to us in word format" ever again :-) So even with some of the main features turned off in the test Drive, you'll see what great potential this version has for OS X users (but you'll need version 10.1)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NOTHING OUT THERE WILL GIVE YOU HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE FASTER!!
Review: It only takes a mere seconds. And suddenly you're experiencing high blood pressure that registers in the danger zone. But you won't mind. It's part of living on the edge in Word OSX. Want to play? Follow these directions. Simply install Microsoft Word's OS X in two of your networked Macs. Almost instantaneously you'll feel a little flush come to your face when the screen reads: "ACCESS DENIED. YOU'RE ONLY PERMITTED TO RUN ONE COPY OF WORD X." HOW THOUGHTFUL! Because everybody I know who has two home computers would surely want to spring another [$$$] for the exact same product. This program is supposed to assist me in my work. Not spy on me. Microsoft they never quit. I mean it's really amazing. I don't need big brother. I need an assistant. And because Microsoft is so fun loving...get this... it actually opens the program and then does it's song and dance about how it will now quit. FOR BLOOD PRESSURE THAT COULD BE BETTER MEASURE USING THE THE RICTER SCALE THIS IS THE ONLY PRODUCT YOU'LL EVER NEED. IF YOU WANT A DECENT WORD PROCESSING APPLICATION GO COREL OR ' THINK WORD' THEY'RE CHEAPER AND THEY CAN BE SAVED AS WORD. DOC DOCUMENT WHICH IS WHAT WORD USES.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Basically the Same, with a New Surprise
Review: What sold me on this upgrade was the other reviewers' testimonies about the complaints they would receive from PC owners about not being able to open Word documents created on a Mac. I began experiencing that problem, thinking it was a system issue rather than a bug in the 2001 software.

Anyway, I bought this upgrade because I didn't need the whole Office Suite, which is three times more expensive. I haven't had the chance to explore all of Word's new features, but so far I'm happy with it. The upgrade from Office 2001 was painless. The user interface is basically the same as the 2001 version, so there were no big learning curves.
Much to my surprise, I found out that I could save my document as a PDF file right from Word with one click of a button. I didn't have to go into Acrobat Acrobat or Distiller in order to accomplish this.
Recommended.
