I must concur about the whole office V.X suite on OSX ... I know some guys
of the development team and it is a whole separate code base. In many ways
the Mac office suite is 'ahead' of the windows code base. Mant features
appear in Office Mac then show up the following year in office XP ...

 I personally haven't tried it, but it would be interested to know if the
IMAP problems in Mail.app from Jaguar (10.2.x) persist in Mail.app under
Panther (10.3.x), they did quite an overhaul on it, almost enough to tempt
me to try it in place of  Entourage
