Microsoft Office:mac 2008 not improved for Windows Server 2003

Office:mac 2008 is disappointing many. A case in point, from reader Richard Chera,

"I am running Windows Server 2003 on my company network with 5 users total. The only reason I purchased [Office:mac] 2008 [to update Office:mac 2004] is because I was told the compatibility with Windows Server would be better.

To my disappointment, it has not changed much at all. In fact, the most annoying let down, is that Tasks in Entourage still do not sync with Server 2003.

Many e mails to Microsoft tech support have shown they have no intention of correcting this problem."

It seems that Office:mac is still badly hobbled for business users. [Bill Fox]
