Anyone heard of this or tried it? Looks like a new release, MacOffice Professional.

It's borderline scam. It appears to be a repackaged version of the FREE Open Office suite.

Just go download Open Office or it's sister product NeoOffice for free. Avoid these people looking to make a profit from ignorant buyers at the expense of the hardworking OO and NeoOffice developers.

Thanks. That did begin to look suspicious when VBA was mentioned.

My suspicions were raised by the absence of a demo/trial version and the paucity of real information on the website. Why was there no download version?
Thanks for the information that MacOffice is NeoOffice in disguise. With NeoOffice, iWork08 and Office for Mac it would take a pretty spectacular product to pry loose the $ i am budgeting for Leopard.
