Office 2008 update includes Entourage EWS

Not that the [release notes have any mention of it][1], but the [Microsoft Office 2008 12.2.5][2] update will also install the latest [Entourage EWS 13.0.5][3] if you had it on your hard disk already (else you get vanilla Entourage updated). You only need to install the stand-alone update if this is the first time you are installing the Exchange Web Services version of Entourage.

Microsoft’s Mac installers are good, but unnecessarily complicated. And the design of the [Mactopia website][4] drives me up the wall – tiny little scrolling `

` blocks and javascript hyperlinks makes it difficult to read the information and difficult to link straight to an update.
