Filed under: SoftwareEven though the Mac BU is targeting March 11 as the ship date for the first official update to Office 2008 (12.0.1), there’s groundwork to be laid and preparations to be made. It’s in that spirit of watchful readiness that we note the appearance this afternoon of Microsoft’s AutoUpdate 2.1.1 updater, available through… well, through Microsoft AutoUpdate 2.1.0, part of the base Office 2008 install. After that, you know, it’s turtles all the way down.Other than the criticality of the update and that it’s 2.0 MB in size, we don’t know much else, but it’s safe to say that this updater updater is a prerequisite for the real updater coming soon. As an Entourage 2008 user who is suffering consistent crashes each time the main window is closed and auto-reopens, I’ll count myself among those eager for some fixes as rapidly as possible.Thanks KyleRead | Permalink | Email this | Comments
