Office 2011 to ship October 26

That’s right — Office for Mac 2011 now has an on-sale date; it’s October 26th, just about a month away. The suite will be the first Mac OS X version that offers Outlook rather than Entourage, and will come in a few different flavors. Home and Student 2011 will be available for $119 (or $149 for a three-copy family pack), and will come with Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Messenger. Home and Business 2011 will have the whole enchilada and will sell for $199 (or $279 for a two-install pack).

The announcement came with the cheery video above, which runs through a few new features of the software, and shows you a few of the kind folks running the Mac Business Unit. A couple of us have been using Office for Mac 2011, and we’ll have some impressions for you later on. Stay tuned — if you’ve been waiting for a brand new Office for Mac, the wait is almost over.
