This is no doubt good news but there is a slight catch. The catch is that Office 2016 for Mac will only be available to Office 365 subscribers at the moment. This means is that if you’re not subscribed to Office 365 and would much rather just buy the standalone version of Office 365 for your Mac computer, you’d be out of luck.
