[QUOTE="Horness, post: 698187, member: 46714"] If you feel like burning money, or donning an eye patch and setting sail, go for Office 2008. Word, Excel, Powerpoint are all there and work as they should, as is "Outlook" but under a different name. Everything will feel similar to that PC experience and you'll soon feel right at home. [b]However[/b] - If you want something that supports Microsoft .docx (spit) the open document formats, runs a lot quicker and is free, NeoOffice or OpenOffice are both great products and should be investigated first before you make a decision. The interface resembles more of Office 2003 than anything, and you may spend a few extra seconds here-and-there locating your usual features, but it's all there, for free. I bought Office 2008 to cover my work needs, however most of what I do is covered by NeoOffice. Horness [/QUOTE]
