Microsoft Office 3.0

Description

Release number 3.0 of Microsoft Office was one of the versions of Microsoft Office. It was the second major release for the Microsoft Windows operating system and the third on the Macintosh, coming before the version of Microsoft Office that was 4.0. Microsoft published Office 3.0 on August 30, 1992, completely skipping version 2 for the Windows operating system. Previously, each of these components for Windows was sold individually; it wasn't until the release of Microsoft Office that they were brought together to form a complete office suite.

Word 2.0c, Excel 4.0a, PowerPoint 3.0, and Mail, a network messaging client, were the primary elements that made up this software. Word 5.1 was released exclusively for Macintosh computers and was not available for Microsoft Windows at the time.
