Yes the ribbon is finally here :) I also use iWork but office for Mac really needed an upgrade. If everyone uses Mac around you then use iWork, if your the only Mac in a Windows network then use Mac Office 2011 :)

[KhmerD0g]

u can download Open Office for free. why buy Microsoft Office 2011? don't waste money. #LOL

[helpfulmactips2010]

@KhmerD0g haha well Open Office has all of the basic features from Office, but Office has way more extensive tools, and it is more professional.

[KhmerD0g]

@helpfulmactips2010

for all those with little money, it is a big help. for u rich people, u don't care. and professionals who are doing work like publishing require extensive tools then go ahead and buy Microsoft Office. i would say at least 90 percent of people out there don't need Microsoft Office.

do u ever use at least 90 percent of the features in Microsoft Office? i doubt it. what do u use on Microsoft Office for? are u working in publishing job?

[KhmerD0g]

by the way, u can buy add on tools for Open Office too. buy pay what u need.

[TechyMike]

@KhmerD0g Yea I use to Love Open Office, Until I got Office 2010 for 7.

Now I can see why its better to pay.

[KhmerD0g]

@TechyMike

7 bucks for Office 2010. i'll pay for it. as long as the price is reasonable i will buy it.

God, not the ribbon! The great thing about the Mac is that everything has the same interface - menu at the top of the screen. I don't mind some shortcuts or optional toolbars, so long as I can turn all that junk off. The ribbon is a complete pain in the ass that breaks the Mac model and eats up screen space.

Apple's iWork is looking better and better.

[helpfulmactips2010]

@billspamcan well. its to make it easier for people to switch between windows and mac.

[KaPOWitsCHRIS]

Any chance of a video going over the new messenger some more?

[helpfulmactips2010]

@KaPOWitsCHRIS maybe... lol

[helpfulmactips2010]

@KaPOWitsCHRIS there is video chat if thats what you mean.

[jumpymouse]

Does Office 2011 remember Window Placement? Office 2008 never will open fully maximized, it always leaves a little screen space around the top and sides.

[helpfulmactips2010]

@jumpymouse yes it remembers.

[vgalbin]

I have beta 6 :P

[helpfulmactips2010]

@vgalbin haha i have it too. but there are no major updates, so i didnt want to post another video. lol

[jokuff]

copy/paste from windows :D

[Andrewterrorist]

I just got the beta, the messenger isn't much different from the old messenger 8 beta for mac :/ You cant even change your own display name. I thought it would have the same feature as Windows Live Messenger but it doenst. Oh well, its still in beta, who knows, maybe the stable version will have even messenger plus plugins. (I HOPE!!)

[vgalbin]

@Andrewterrorist hey at least MS put video chat into it now! olol

[bryno92]

I was thinking of torrenting this but since you said its almost out of beta, I guess I'll just wait a little bit. I was really hoping for the interface that the 2010 version on windows has but oh well.

Subscribed!

[matzipanful]

Microsoft still isn't able to make an interface worthy of Mac

[lodes0]

@matzipanful Agreed macs are complete fail charging more than double a PC of course without most of the gaming industry not included.

[helpfulmactips2010]

@lodes0 but they last longer than a week cause they dont get viruses

[Borridd]

@helpfulmactips2010 Good joke.

[matzipanful]

@helpfulmactips2010 Not if you know how to protect it. In almost two years since I got my new laptop, I have caught a virus only once because I hit the wrong button. And also, if you want to be virus free on a PC you can always choose Linux. Which is cheaper than a Windows PC, ofc.

[lodes0]

@helpfulmactips2010 Sigh that is because compared to macs pcs are much more widely used macs dont get viruses because people who create viruses want as much information as possible. Macs are expensive beyond reason. Even parts to upgrade macs are expensive. Yes they are beautiful and apple is uniform. But they simply aren't better then a pc.

[matzipanful]

@lodes0 I said that the Office interface does not match Mac OS, and even in Windows, it's hard to use. 2 years of use, and I still don't know where to change many things.

I really appreciate Apple for their philosophy, but sometimes they are more annoying than Microsoft. When I say that I think of iPhone, iPad, expensive iMac.

But somehow, I get them, in the sense that they offer some kind of premium computers.

[veri03]

@lodes0 Different market niche. People who buy Macs are doing so to suit their own interest -- design / build quality, preference for OS X, whatever. Gaming is just a little thing on the side to them.

Used to build desktops to game, typing this on a MacBook Pro. I love Windows and have used it with very few problems ever since Windows 98, mostly because I don't use computers like an idiot. And I like OS X too. Equal opportunity techie.

[vgalbin]

@lodes0 btw u could EASILY get ported mac games from the piratebay or other torrenting sites…..

[joshuapaulmiller]
