[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 281859, member: 21101"] I was sold the Student/Teacher version and given a wink by the sales person and this was in an Apple Store. I am neither a student or a teacher, although my other half recently started a course that qualifies us. I'be probably spent over $5,000 on MS products in the last 20 years anyway, so I don't feel too bad. Anyay, there are no technical restrictions on the software, but by accepting the terms of the license agreement, you are in breach. It's your conscience. As to the original poster. I use Office 2004 on the Mac and also have Office 2000 installed on Parallels (like caribiner23) and both run equally well. The Mac Office suite gives you Entourage which can sync up to other programmes and has some nice features. Also, word and excel sit nicely on the desktop with transparent tool bars etc which is nice. Some people say it runs slowly under Rosetta. Obviosuly I have not tried it on a G5, but it runs fast enough for me. Certainly faster than Office 2007 under WinXP, so there you go. [/QUOTE]
