Download for Mac Download for PC Download for iPhone / iPad. Works with macOS Catalina and earlier, Windows 10 and earlier, and iOS 13 and earlier. Tip: I had to upgrade my OS X because you can't install Office for Mac with any version of OS X below 10.10. To see my tutorial on how to upgrade your OS X go here. I also had some internet interruptions on my initial download to my downloads folder and had a hard time opening the package because it did not download the full 2.6GB.
Microsoft Office is a bundle of Microsoft's productivity application. This includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access and later Mail, Office Manager, and Outlook. The '1.x' versions of Microsoft Office were simply a marketing bundle of the standalone products sold together with no other packaging changes. Even though these were distinct applications, rather than one single monolithic program, they shared a similar user interface, integrated well together and shared the ability to embed documents from one application in the documents of another.
MS Office started out on the Macintosh, but quickly became the de-facto office suite for Windows 3.x.
Microsoft Office competed with a number of other office suites including Lotus Smartsuite, Borland/WordPerfect/Corel Office, and Star Office. Also see a complete list of Winworld's Word Processors, Spreadsheets, Databases, and Presentation programs.

Release notes
Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition
Microsoft Office for Windows 95 (AKA Microsoft Office 7) was a fully 32 bit compliant version of Office released along-side Windows 95. It is also natively compatible with Windows NT 3.51. Few new features were introduced in Word which was largely reminiscent of version 6.0/Office 4.0. Word's version is 7 in this release and the other Office members have had their version numbers raised to match that of Word.
