Office 2004 runs like ass on Rosetta.

#1, True, but then again, it does on XP too.

I'm shocked at the poor compositing for an Apple commercial. The PC guy has no shadow and he looks like he's floating. The Mac and Office guys, albeit subtle, do.

MS office (whatever number) is VERY slow on intel Macs and this ad is simply lie.

Ondro Soukupe (modráku, haxx0re, whatever :))), I doubt Access will ever be on Mac OS X. That's one of prices Mac user has to pay.

I thought the ad was great! LOL great!
BTW, I run a 24" iMac and find that with the exclusion of start-up times, office runs perfectly under Rosetta.
Stop flamen winging! At least you have something to complain about :P

they should've waited to release this ad until after they had a native intel version. office does run like ass on rosetta. how come it's taking so long for microsoft to release a univeral binary version? maybe bill is holding out on purpose...

This ad is absolutely great!! They NEED to do this for the USA.
MS Office runs a lot faster on my iMac core duo 1.83 than it did on my PB G4 1.33. It works just fine.

Of course he is. Think how many resources MS has. They could get it done in a month if they wanted to.
They'll release it late and then cripple it (no VBA support).

@yjs > "Office 2004 runs like ass on Rosetta."
I find it runs just fine. The time from double-clicking an .xls file to being able to edit the columns is 12.6 secs on a freshly booted machine, and 4.7 secs on the second launch.
Maybe your problem is memory: Rosetta needs a bit of memory, especially when the first Rosetta app is launched. Any system using Rosetta apps should have 2 GB, imho.
Of course, I do have a 3.0GHz Mac Pro with RAID drive, so I'm skewed towards seeing good performance across the board.
Relatively speaking though, I don't find Office (PowerPC) a problem, and it ran fine when I set it up on a Mac Book Pro for a colleague.

I like the UK ads a lot better than the US ones. I mean, what a great personification of Office! They're very clever.

So....ehhh.... what about the pink guy? Isn't he supposed to be Access? On a Mac?

Oh...nevermind. Entourage. The email-client I don't use. But I bet millions of Windows-users will think he's supposed to be Access...

2 disappointments with MS Office Mac….
-One there is no access
-Two I almost never touch my mouse in excel as I use it all day at work (on my POS Dell… not by choice!) but then when I get on my Mac I slow down tremendously as I cannot use my ALT or CTRL shortcuts….
Anyone know any fixes to this besides using a PC???
