Default Office 2004 for Mac Support Extended to January 10, 2012

http://www.appleinsider.com/blogs/m...until_2012.html

"Originally scheduled to expire Tuesday, support for Office 2004 for Mac has been extended to Jan. 10, 2012, Microsoft's Mac Team announced."

The reason for the extension is that Visual Basic for Applications support isn't included in Office 2008, so those that need to have that aspect are sticking with 2004 out of necessity. Office 2010 will have the support so it appears they are giving it a couple years to allow people to switch to the latest version before dropping support. Office 2010 will also bring back Outlook, which Microsoft says is a "new version written from the ground up in Cocoa for the Mac platform." I'm actually looking forward to seeing how they have improved it for Mac. Currently I use Mailplane since my email is pretty much all Gmail except for a work account. What do you use?
