Office 2011

[dayhoff]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Anyone know if the 2011 version will have any performance upgrades? The 2008 version is the slow and loves the color wheel of death. I think it is ridiculous that an Excel sheet with a thousand rows basically brings Excel to its knees when you can put in a million rows, what a joke.

Anyone who might 'know' is under strict NDA to not discuss anything about
it, pro or con. Speculation is pointless.

There is a sweepstake running in this office on how much faster "that"
Office will go than "this" office

My money is on "1,000 times faster".

But as Bob said, "Those who know, can't tell us. Those who tell us, don't
know!"

Cheers

Do you have a workbook you can share that runs particularly slow? I've
noticed some Microsoft employees looking for examples in this newsgroup.

I have a few I could probably share. Work related, but probably okay to share.
