Does anyone else have better information? Yes, this is true. To show the path to this information, do this: 1) Go to the Mactopia website, which is part of microsoft.com: <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/default.mspx>. 2) Click the Learn More button: <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/Office2008/office-2011-upgrade.mspx> . 3) Click the Request My Upgrade button: <https://www.techg.arvatousa.com/OfficeMacTechG/>. This will take you to Microsoft's vendor handling the Technology Guarantee. 4) In the upper right corner, click the FAQ link: <https://www.techg.arvatousa.com/OfficeMacTechG/FAQ.aspx>. 5) Expand the link "Which products are included in the Technology Guarantee qualifying Office for Mac 2011 suites?" You will see the following information: Two Office for Mac 2011 suites will be available. Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Student 2011 Includes * Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 * Microsoft Excel for Mac 2011 * Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac 2011 * Microsoft Messenger for Mac 8 Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Business 2011 Includes * Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 * Microsoft Excel for Mac 2011 * Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac 2011 * Microsoft Messenger for Mac 8 * Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011 I've searched everywhere else I could to find this information and validate it and this is the closest I could get, which in my opinion is very, very buried and will certainly aggravate a lot of customers who are expecting Outlook as a replacement for Entourage. I'm submitting this to one of my Microsoft contacts that they need to be much more forthcoming about this. -- William Smith -- YouTalk mailing list List information: http://www.entourage.mvps.org/support_options/list.html List moderator: [email protected], [email protected] To unsubscribe: mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
