Expiration Date? Does anyone know the expiration date of Office OS X 2011 Beta 4? Also, I've seen patches that have been posted that claim to remove the expiration date, but none that I know for sure to be trustworthy. If anyone has a line on a good clean patch to eliminate the expiry on Beta 4, I'd much appreciate a lead. Thanks!
sorry, the fourth beta seems to have expired already and even the supply of it is in short short supply!

Either paste it in the terminal, or turn it into a .sh file and run it. Enjoy.
