Office 2008 for MAC beta download

I support a number of executives in a media company that use MACBOOK PRO
laptops and MAC OFfice 2004. I want to test Exchange integration (2003) with
the new Entourage program in MAC OFFICE 2008. Is there a beta download on
Technet...like there was for Office 2007 that the rest of my company usees? D

You will need to monitor the site to see if it is being made available to the general public. You can also apply to Microsoft directly to find out this information. Look to the site for the Macintosh version of Office to see what information about the beta has been made available.

To my knowledge, Mac Office betas are usually closed.

I tried getting on the Beta Program for Office ofr Mac 2004, but found it
impossible to find anywhere to enrole.

Your other issue... you could probably try contacting Microsoft directly or
you could try reposting into the Mac area of these Discussion Groups

Thanks for your thoughts. Too bad MAC beta's are not as available as Windows
software.

I think they probably are, but like the Windows Home Server Beta, there was
probably a huge registration process, which closed after a short period of
time.
