Finally, Microsoft has announced detailed plans for their next version of Microsoft Office for Mac 2011, nearly three years since the last version was released in 2008.
Some of the major enhancements and features to be part of the new version include renewed support for Visual Basic (why was support ever dropped?), Microsoft Outlook for Mac which replaces Entourage as Office's e-mail client, and additional support for collaboration and cross-platform compatibility across operating systems.
Microsoft Outlook for Mac will support PST file import, allowing for a user to migrate easily e-mail messages from a Windows environment to a Mac environment for the first time. The new e-mail software fully integrates with Time Machine and Spotlight for backups and realtime searching.
It's been reported that Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 will be available for purchase by this upcoming holiday season.
