Microsoft has released the public beta of Office 2016 for Mac on the Microsoft Office webpage, most notably bringing a redesign and Retina support to the suite of apps. The beta can be downloaded for free and provides an alternative to Apple’s iWork suite. The beta is a 2.5GB download and takes close to 6GB of your hard drive space after it installs. A subscription to Office 365 costs $10 per month, or $100 per year and gives you the right to download Office software to up to five computers. It’s a pricing model that Microsoft has used for Office for iPad. Right now the beta doesn’t require a subscription. Microsoft says the public version of Office for Mac 2016 will be released in the second half of 2015. You can download the beta from Microsoft’s website. It’s supported only on the latest version of Mac OS X Yosemite.
