Funny. I just had a call from a very nice VMWare customer service agent after a few days of exchanging emails: Office 2013 on Win 8 has graphical glitches in Fusion 5 if 3D acceleration is enabled. While he did not have a fix for me, he did tell me about a workaround (disabling 3D accelleration) and reassured me that the problem is known and actively being worked on. Considering that both Win 8 and Office 2013 are prerelease software, I am entirely fine with that. And to get back to the point: that phone call was extremely pleasant and really gave me that warm, fuzzy feeling that they actually care about my problems. That, honestly, is worth a lot to me. Indeed more than a few percentage points of performance.
