[QUOTE="Buzzard2010, post: 1220088, member: 176415"] Welcome to Mac-Forums No windows based software will run on Apple OS unless stated otherwise as being Windows and Mac compatible or just mac compatible, just like Mac only software won't run on Windows. As for a cheap alternative, OpenOffice is a free choice and recommended by many. Second alternative would be to install Windows onto your Mac through Bootcamp or virtualisation software like VMWare or Parallels, although I always suggest going for the Mac-ways first. :) Hope this helps - Simon [/QUOTE]
