Office 2008 ships with Messenger 6.0.3. Messenger 7.0 is coming sometime this year according to MS.

Yes, it is surprising what people who use Windows will do when AOL or any other messaging client doesn't come installed by default.

Is it just me, or is Office 2008 turning into the biggest pile of crippleware crud that MS has ever produced for the Mac?

I dunno about 2008, have not seen it yet, but in windows that's true for office 2007. but it's great business for an office trainer, as users just can't seem to deal with the entire rearrangement of the interface (for no apparent reason). Did they do the same for 2008?
