    I bought it yesterday and installed it.

    So far I like it more than office 2003, however it seems to take rather long time to load, cosider the macbook's processing powers.

    It is not a Universal Binary, it's compiled for PPC and runs through Rosetta, that's why it takes so long. After you load it once it stays cached (if you have enough memory) and it gets quicker.
