Is it possible to have the same view on my MAC using office 2008 as is used on a PC using Office 2007?
I am familiar with where things are using that view and sorta like it.

Most of us are not familiar with the PC views. You can always install Boot
Camp and run Windows on your Mac.

Hi,

The interface will always be slightly different, as the Mac version is
slightly different. Most notably, the Mac has menus and palettes
compared with the windows ribbon.

The Mac interface is highly customizable. You can move tools and
commands around to your liking. On the View menu choose Customize
Toolbars and Menus. Also investigate each applications preferences. When
that dialog box is open everything is fair game. Add, remove, move
around all the toolbars and menu items. You can make your own toolbars
from scratch if you don't want to mess with the built-in ones.

I'm willing to bet if you do your own customizations that you will find
that you can create a working environment that is better for you than
the default interface for either Mac or Windows Office.
