The team is also introducing a 'technology guarantee program'-as of September 25, anyone who buys a current version of Office will get an upgrade to the 2008 equivalent for the cost of shipping and handling when the final version ships.ДЄs expected, Office 2008 will be available as a Universal Binary and will support the Open XML file format that Office 2007 users under Windows have been 'enjoying' since the beginning of this year.

The Mac BU still promises that new features will be posted 'every couple of weeks' to the Office 2008 sneak peek site, and that it is aiming to have all versions of Office on shelves on January 15 in time for Macworld. It allows for three licenses for non-commercial use, and will retail for $149.95.

Special Media Edition will retail for $499.95 ($299.95 upgrade), which the Mac BU says reflects a $200 savings compared to if you were to buy the parts separately. Special Media Edition will come with all of the above, plus Microsoft Expression Media-a digital asset management suite that will help media-crazed users import, annotate, organize, archive, search, and distribute their media files.

Click Continue once you have reviewed the software license agreement. The first step in the installation process will be to select Continue. This package will go for $399.95, the same price as the current Office suite ($239.95 for an upgrade license). Next, double-click the Microsoft Office installer.pkg file (it might seem slightly different). As expected, the core package of Office will include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Entourage sporting both support for Automator and 'full' Exchange support. Officially announcing the SKUs at the Apple Expo in Paris this week, the Mac BU tells Ars that there will be three packages for Office 2008 when it's finally released: Office 2008 for Mac, Office 2008 for Mac Special Media Edition, and Office 2008 for Mac Home and Student Edition.

'This update fixes a vulnerability that an attacker can use to overwrite the contents of your computer's memory with malicious code,' Microsoft said on its Web site, referring to the Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 11.4.1 update.We think that Microsoft's Mac BU has taken a lesson out of Apple's iPhone PR book: 'Announce something new every week about your upcoming product and stay in the news constantly!' The group has certainly done a good job of it so far, and this week's announcement brings us information on SKUs and pricing of Mac Office 2008. Microsoft also issued an update Tuesday for the older Office 2004 for Mac product. As a result, Mac owners who need to read the new formats are faced with the choice of either upgrading or relying on the limited, beta converters that Microsoft has made available thus far. The company has also delayed several times the availability of converter tools that allow its predecessor to read the XML file formats introduced with Office 2007 for Windows. Office for Mac includes Word, Excel for spreadsheets, PowerPoint for presentations and Entourage for e-mail and time management.

On its Web site, the company offered a little more detail, adding, 'This update fixes critical issues in Office 2008, including issues that might cause Office 2008 applications to stop responding or quit unexpectedly.'ДЄfter some delay, Microsoft released Office 2008 in January. After a series of delays, Microsoft plans to release Office for Mac 2008 to brick-and-mortar and online stores on January 15, making this the first update in nearly four years. In an e-mail, Microsoft said that version 12.0.1 adds 'suite-wide stability and performance improvements,' along with the security fixes.

Microsoft said on Tuesday that it has released its first update to Office 2008 for Mac, fixes that should boost stability and performance in some areas, while closing some security holes.
