Microsoft has released Office:Mac 2008. "The suite is a major step forward for those who prefer to use the Redmond company's applications for the Mac platform. Since its last update in 2004, much has changed on the Windows side: this effectively brings Apple customers up to speed." Ars sat down with the Mac Business Unit at MacWorld.

"and it will get Numbers 2 at MacWorld 2009, Office loses it's excel edge"
Dream on... No serious user of Excel is going to switch to "Numbers 2". No wait, Numbers 2 doesn't even exist. Quit smoking Jobs' crack rocks!
"I doubt this will sell as well as 2004 did (well, it will probably lose Mac market share but the number of macs sold every year has multiplied many fold). Overall nice, but it will face stiff competition."
Mac versions of Office represent a tiny percentage of the revenue for Office products. As far as Microsoft is concerned, they have no competition when it comes to Office... Office for Mac will continue to sell well and Mac users will continue to buy it.
