        Comments about Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Business Edition:

        I upgraded to Office 2008 under the mistaken impression that it would resolve compatibility issues w/ excel files generated in excel 2007 for windows. No such luck. In fact, I found that Microsoft has removed visual basic functionality from the newer version of excel. So, not only have I not solved my compatibility issues, I have had to reload excel 2003 for those times that I want to use the statistical analysis tools that are no longer available.
