Redmond Profits from Cupertino Wares

Microsoft just can't seem to lose. If Vista doesn't catch on, sell XP instead. If the Mac market picks up, make money on Office!

Microsoft says Office 2008 for the Mac is its best-selling Mac suite ever. No wonder Microsoft remains committed to this product line.
