<p><font size="3" face="Verdana"><b>Introducing Microsoft Office
98 Macintosh Edition</b></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">We invite you to enter a bold,
new dimension in the realm of productivity suites for the Mac OS
platform. Microsoft</font><font size="3" face="Verdana"> </font><font
size="2" face="Verdana">Æ Office 98 Macintosh Edition is the
premier desktop applications suite that lets you achieve results
as brilliant as your ideas. From document creation, to online
collaboration, to electronic presentations, Office 98 provides
intelligent, user-friendly applications to help accomplish your
objectives and goals. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Microsoft conducted more
research than ever before to create a product that meets a
broader range of customer needs. Web surveys, customer visits,
and extensive phone interviews helped us fully understand the
mindset of our more than 8 million users of Microsoft Office for
the Macintosh. As a result of this massive research effort, we
were able to obtain a spectrum of user feedback that allowed us
to deliver significant product enhancements. Weve focused
on making Office 98: </font></p>
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">A great application for the
Macintosh </font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Easier to use, with
features that are easier to find </font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">A powerful tool for
communicating and collaborating</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="3" face="Verdana"><b>A Great Application for the
Macintosh</b></font><font size="2" face="Verdana"><br>
Take a look at our online multimedia demo to see how these facets come
into play. First, we've designed Office 98 to look and behave
more like an application for the Macintosh, with a human
interface based on the Mac OS 8 appearance specifications. Office
98 also significantly improves support for Apple technologies.
One of the best examples of this is that QuickTime is now
incorporated into the Office drawing tools so its easy to
insert QuickTime VR movies and panoramas into any Office 98
document.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Office 98 Macintosh Edition also
introduces Drag & Drop Install, providing simplicity by
allowing users to simply drag the application right onto the
desktop. To make Office 98 as easy as possible to manage,
Microsoft introduced self-maintaining applications that will fix
things and replace missing fileswith no user intervention.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Verdana"><b>Easier to Use</b></font><font
size="2" face="Verdana"><br>
In addition, we've crafted Office 98 to meet the customer need
for an easy-to-use, intuitive desktop applications suite. Office
98 provides a powerful set of tools for creating and organizing a
variety of information and tasks. The Office Assistant helps you
discover the full functionality of Office 98, while
IntelliSenseÆ technology automates routine tasks (such as
grammar and spelling checks) so that you can focus on content
creation and get your work done faster. The new natural language
processing allows you to work the way you want you can ask
questions in your own words and use plain English to create
formulas in Excel.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Verdana"><b>Powerful Tool for
Communication and Collaboration</b></font><font size="2"
face="Verdana"><br>
Finally, Office 98 allows users to communicate and collaborate
efficiently with other users, regardless of the operating system
they use. When we found out that 91% of Macintosh Office users
share files with Windows users, we knew it was very important to
make the file formats in Office 98 identical to those in Office
97 for Windows. Office 98 seamlessly integrates Web technologies
for today's businesses with innovative collaboration tools for
creating, publishing, and sharing information interactively with
others across networks.</font></p>
