Filed in Apple, Tech, Thursday, 15 November, 2007, 00:58January is coming closer, and the only good thing about that (hopefully) is the new Office 2008 for Mac. Not so much because of all the new features, but mainly because the suite finally runs natively on my Intel Macbook Pro.

- Elements Gallery
- Document Elements
- Publishing Layout View
- Officeart
- Smartart Graphics
- Building Charts
- My Day
- Toolbox
- Ledger Sheets
