Just got the announcement in my inbox that informed me that MS Office 2008 is now ready for purchase. I was quite displeased with Office 2004 that I have been running since I switched to Mac last February. One of the best productivity choices I have witnessed to date.

With Office 2008 you will notice that there are 3 versions, the usual education version, standard, and a new media version that does some fancy stuff with digital assets hooked into Expression. Long story about this product name, but needless to say, it's been used before Microsoft got their hands on it.

Regardless, the upgrade looks pretty sweet, and likely screams on the new dual core CPU's in the Mac's these days.

Check out the product details here:

Office 2008 for Mac - Home and Student Edition, $149.95

Office 2008 for Mac, $399.95

Office 2008 for Mac - Special Media Edition, $499.95

Oh and Apple, you guys need to get some "pretty urls" for your store. Not being able to copy and paste the url due to session restrictions does not make it easy for me to share the announcement.
