Title: Need Office '03 for Mac
Post by: raptor on 2008-02-22T12:09:21-06:00 (Friday)
I'm getting parents a mac this weekend and I need a copy of Office '03 for Mac.  If anyone can get this to me say tomorrow at the LAN party/open house I would be eternally grateful.  Hell I'll even pick you up a case of beer (if you are old enough)

Awesome. I REALLY REALLY need this. I'm getting my parents a new Mac right after the open house and it is a MUST have.

You aren't buying it?  Also, I believe O2K8 is out now.

Nothing in general, but you know that this is outright illegal.  None of you should give him a copy, lest you all be part of the illegal transaction as well.

If you have a job, go buy it.  If you can't afford it, have them buy it.  I can't believe you bought a Mac and decided you couldn't afford Office.  You suck right about now.

Glad you bought it :)

Outlook has never been in Office for the Mac, as far as I know.  I have O2K3, and it has Entourage as well.  However, as far as I can tell, there isn't any difference between it and Outlook.  Then again, I don't use Outlook much beyond use at the office.

FYI:

There isn't really any apparent difference. But M$ decided not to encorporate any type of import tool that will move mail from outlook to entourage. I had to take the emails from outlook (windows) to thunderbird (windows) to mail (mac) to entourage (mac) FUN FUN.
