ozzie123 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Microsoft Office 11 (version 2004 that is) is running great on my PC even under Rosetta. Plus, my PC is SSE2 only. And as for adobe illustrator, it doesn't run that great and the slowness although still bearable, is kinda annoying. Haven't tried endnote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8344-noob-question-is-it-possible-to-install-microsoft-office-x-with-my-pentium-iv/#findComment-52421 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiterat Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I get sent loads of Mac apps from work through the Volume Licensing Program from Microsoft. Ive tried both Office X and Office 2004. Both seem to work fine under rosetta; although a little slow for my liking. Microsoft have said that they have no intensions to release a new universal binary because it runs under rosetta fine - M$ you suck. I must admit there was a slight problem with an install of the early version of Office 2004; the installer didnt work. But I used a Dec 2005 edition and it loaded perfectly Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8344-noob-question-is-it-possible-to-install-microsoft-office-x-with-my-pentium-iv/#findComment-55327 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I used a Dec 2005 edition and it loaded perfectly I tried Microsoft Office X 2004 with Endnote... It s working, fast for text. As soon as u get some pictures in ur report/ publication, u get ur mac a bit laggy sometimes... That can / could be annoying for some users (with Rosetta) (1.5 M centrino ; 512MB ; SSE2). Concerning the Endnote program, No Problems. I still have to try Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop. Concerning also pictures, it looks rather slowlier sometimes.... I dont know what to do to improve this. Is there a way to make the MAC runs Faster (as a fvwm e.g. in Linux) ...?? Suppressing things maybe ?? Or Panther MAC possibel maybe ? Ahh, then Micr. Office X wont work ... hmmmm Greetings, Patrick === (If you know what kidn of program can resize the MAC AF type partition, plz let me know) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8344-noob-question-is-it-possible-to-install-microsoft-office-x-with-my-pentium-iv/#findComment-55759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadRush Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Patrick - slam in the RAM! at least 1Gb to run Rosetta apps.
