I have got beta 3 of the new Office suite for Mac and I have to say its
bloody good.

Outlook is way way better than Entorage, and although a Beta its really slick.

Impressed.

I'd really to use Outlook instead of Entourage but I presume you can't have
Newsgroups with that. That's the only reason I'm using Entourage really is
for the Newsgroups otherwise I'd probably use Mail

I take it that it's still a closed beta? Did you 'find' a copy?

Any sign of the return of Visual Basic in this version?

It would take quite a long time and a reasonably large quantity of
methamphetamine for me to get used to that.
