Office 2008 for Mac and Mac OS X Spaces

This annoys me to no end (straight from mactopia):

When you use Office 2008 for Mac with Mac OS X Spaces, the Office 2008 applications might not behave as expected. This is caused by the architectural implementation of Spaces in Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard). Apple is aware of this issue.

The following are some of the known issues that can occur when running Office 2008 applications in Mac OS X Spaces.

• When you switch between spaces, the Formatting Palette in Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac might move to another space.

• When you drag open Word documents to two different spaces, they might relocate automatically to a single space.

• Word might open in front of other application windows that are running in the active space.

• When you switch to the space assigned to Word, an open Word document might be hidden behind other active application windows, and clicking in the document or on the document window toolbar might not bring the document to the foreground.

• Office 2008 for Mac applications might quit unexpectedly.

  
  

  Ok, so now what? Do I have to wait until Apple completes its plans for world domination to get a Spaces-compatable word processor?
