I am trying to find out if Office 2007 for Wondoze will run on a Macbook running OS X 10.6?

A friend is going to buy a Macbook and has asked if it is possible?

No, the Windows version is for Windows. You have one of two options - get the Mac version (2008 or 2011) or run Windows in a virtual machine or bootcamp and run Office 2007 in that. If you don't already have Office, you're better off getting the Mac version unless you have some really special needs that are only met by the Windows version.

Now I know what it's for it either wore out or fell off! http://jonzjob.hpage.com/ http://s47.photobucket.com/albums/f180/Jonzjob/
