A Whole New Office for Macs

If you’ve been disappointed that Office for the Mac is always a generation to two behind the PC version, the newest edition of Office: Mac 2011 catches up. With it comes new versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook as well as a bunch of utilities and small programs meant to make collaborating and creating sophisticated documents easier. On top of being able to share files that use the latest PC version, all the Office apps let students or teachers edit documents as others are working on them, although you’ll need to have a server that uses Microsoft’s SharePoint Foundation.
