Office 2004 for Mac is a version of Microsoft Office developed for Mac OS X.It is equivalent to Office 2003 for Windows. The software was originally written for PowerPC Macs, so Macs with Intel CPUs must run the program under Mac OS X's Rosetta emulation layer. For this reason, it is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.7 and newer. Office 2004 was replaced by its successor, Microsoft Office 2008. May 25, 2005. May 19, 2004. Aug 30, 2019.

Following the link on MacInTouch's June 8 page, I went to the Microsoft page for downloading the Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 11.5.9 Update.
Clicking the download link on that page produces an error message:
'Sorry, but we couldn't find the page that you requested.'
Way to go, Microsoft.
Clicking the 'Support Home' link on the error page takes me to
http://support.microsoft.com/
Clicking the Microsoft Download Center on that page takes me to
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx
Selecting the popup link for 'Top Downloads for: Mac & Other Platforms' reloads this page with a link that works:
'Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 11.5.9 Update' sends me to
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx? FamilyID=16c71ab8-9284-407a-856a-93c67995f125 &displayLang=en
which does download the update. But not automatically. I had to click the 'If your download does not start after 30 seconds, click here: Start download' link to make it happen.
Again, way to go, Microsoft.
