you'll probably have to wait for steve jobs to announce the release of 10.1 (today) as the beta will not work on previous versions of os X. my guess is that the beta for MS Word will be released a few days after 10.1 to let people obtain 10.1 first. <br><br>[color:blue] -sean</font color=blue>

as if full release software from M$ is anymore stable than other folks betas... <br><br><br><br>just kidding... I think M$'s Mac software generally rocks over the past year or two....<br><br>Wonder if the fact that there is now an OS X version means that an XWindows version wouldn't be that hard to build for other Nix platforms? hmmm....<br><br>***<br>"Buzzards gotta eat, same as worms"<br> --Clint Eastwood in The Outlaw Josey Wales<br>

Like MS would ever support *nix... hahahaha. They are worried that linux will wipe them out of the server market, and if they put office for nix that will be the kiss of death. The day you see that is the day you know MS has $$$$ problems. If you were wondering the end user can't compile again for xwindows...<br><br>-- j o n k n e e --<br><br>
