    No, I don't notice that, I notice the oposite.
    Office XP is much better that office for mac X. Ever tried to open a big document in office for mac to see how slow it is (scrolling, editig, everything)? The same doc opens much faster on a relatively old pc.

    Apple should care more about office on Mac. In my company 3 people (that is half of the mac users) have switched to windows over the last months because of the office on mac. mac:office works fine for small documents but it is incredibly slow and buggy when it has to deal with long documents containing tables and figures. A long document open in office XP on a 1GHz pentium 3 laptop is much much better that the same document open on a 2x1.25 GHz G4 mac.

    who in 1950 said that in 50 years we will be able to programme computers "to make them play the imitation game so well that an average interrogator will not have more than 70 per cent chance of making the right identification after five minutes of questioning" 53 years later we are still so incredible far from this. see this for more details.
