[QUOTE="chscag, post: 964222, member: 46727"] I'm not sure I understand when you say many features of MS Office 2004 for the Mac are not the same as Office 2003? All you really need to worry about is file compatibility. I don't have Office 2004 for the Mac, I have Office 2008 instead. And I find Office 2008 for the Mac provides great compatibility with either my copy of Office 2003 or Office 2007. You can certainly spend $60 or so for Parallels if you choose, but if you really need to run Office 2003 in a VM you might consider using the free VirtualBox from Sun instead. Take a look at it and give it a try. [URL="http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads"]LINK[/URL] Regards. [/QUOTE]
