I had to install MS Office 2008 for the Mac to use some templates for work and must say that I’m still not impressed with the package. It is bloated and still needs polish. I did an update today and saw a bunch of stuff in Console, including:

12/13/08 7:51:35 PM postflight[6475]: Arguments being passed to bspatch:

Hint to Microsoft, take out the debug statements before shipping a product!
