It has been 24 years since Microsoft first released Word, and four years since the program’s last major upgrade. How much more can Microsoft do to tweak its venerable word processor? Surprisingly, Word gets several major enhancements in Office 2008, the first version of Microsoft’s productivity suite to run natively on both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs. Those changes include a new document format, a simplified toolbar, and a new toolbox that combines palettes for managing formatting, clip art, iPhoto images, research, and bibliographies. But the biggest improvement is the addition of a new view option called Publishing Layout.

The next major release of the industry standard page–layout and design software that revolutionized publishing more than 20 years ago.
QuarkXPress 8 delivers superior design power through a new, intuitive interface developed purposefully for the creation of high–end page layout, print, Web and Flash® authoring tools, design–driven typography, and global publishing capabilities – all of which enable designers to push creativity to its limits with confidence and control.
