A year and some later, Microsoft releases Office ‘08 trial
If the words “better late than never” mean anything, then this release has arrived precisely on time. Then again, with the lock Redmond has on the office productivity suite market, there really wasn’t any reason for them to hurry in the first place.
The creators of the Mactopia Web site have at long last announced the availability of the Office 2008 Trial, which comes one year, four months and one day after Office 2008 (the product) was released.
Try Office 2008 for Mac for free and see for yourself why Microsoft Office sets the standard for productivity on the Mac.

For anyone interested in getting Microsoft Office 2008 Special Media Edition for $99.99, time is running out. MacMall still has a few copies of the Special Media Edition available with the purchase of any Mac.

It took them 15 months to realize that Office 2008 hasn’t been selling well?
I think this free trial is going to backfire on them. Even more people will get to see just how bad ‘08 really is. As anyone who has tried both products can tell you, Office 2004, a PowerPC product, runs better on Intel Macs than Office 2008, an Intel native product. Truly a testament to bad design/development.
