Quoting from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=871018 "Microsoft Office
2004 for Mac Installation Read Me":

To run Microsoft Office 2004, your computer must meet the following
minimum requirements:
• Processor: Mac OS X-compatible processor that is a model G3 or higher.
• Operating System: Mac OS X version 10.2.8 or later.
• Memory: 256 MB of RAM.
• Hard Disk*: 570 MB of available hard-disk space for installing Office
by using the Office Setup Assistant (recommended); 610 MB for installing
Office by dragging the Microsoft Office 2004 folder to your hard disk.
• Drives: CD-ROM drive.
• Display: Monitor that can display 1024 x 768 or higher resolution
displaying thousands of colors.
*The hard disk should be in Mac OS Extended (HFS+) format, the default
format for Mac OS X. Although you can use drag-and-drop installation to
install Office 2004 on a hard disk that is in another format, Microsoft
does not currently support such a configuration. To determine the format
of your hard disk, on the Apple menu, click About This Mac, and then
click More Info.

To use all of the features available in Office 2004, we recommend that
you have the following additional items and services:
• Modem: 14.4 Kbps or faster.
• Internet Access: Internet access (for Microsoft Entourage and certain
features in other Office programs). Internet access might require you to
pay a separate fee to a service provider; local and/or long-distance
telephone charges might apply.

Hi, Chantel;
I'm posting this from Mac running Tiger and Excel 2004. It works.
