For Office 2008, if your small business had four employees, you would need to buy four separate copies of Office 2008 Business Edition, since that only had one license per box. MSRP for Office 2008 Business Edition is US$399, so let's call that $1600 for those four licenses. The license for Office 2008 Home and Student Edition requires that it be personal usage and not business usage. For Office 2011 and the same four employees, you can now purchase just two copies of the Office 2011 Business Edition. MSRP is US$279 for the two-license version, or a total of $560 for your four employees. As for Sync Services, I understand your frustration. We made the decision that we would be much better off to not ship support at all, rather than ship support that didn't meet our quality bar. Sync Services support for calendar will come in a future update. We're working closely with Apple to address the remaining issues, and will issue an update as soon as we possibly can.
