Actually X showed up within just a few months of OSX (Hence the
reference about Office X) That was in 2001 just after Office 2001 was
released.
Then it was Office 2004 but it was almost 4 Years. Then 2008 has been a
little more than 4 years. If you count by Month.
And before OSX the was office 2001 which took the place of I believe 98
And before that was w95/Excel95 (the one I liked the best), offered as a
package as Office 4.2 There never has been a 2 year spread, its 2-1/2,
3, 3-1/2, 4. who know It might end up being 6 year spread next time.
