[QUOTE="GLXMAN, post: 1423231, member: 259477"] Hi Guys, Budget is getting closer to the new iMac, As you would imagine, trying to learn as much as I can prior to purchase, I'm guessing that the best option is to not to load "Office for Mac 2011"? I'm thinking of taking that off my list, but have a few questions, 1. I'm guessing I will be OK with PDFs as Adobe reader will take care of that? 2. Two other files that I'm concerned about, a. Word, and b. Excel Can a Mac read word? Can a mac read excel? I believe that Mac can save a doc as a word doc? My main interest is that I have a lot of word and PDF info on my old ms machine, Should I just "bite the bullet" and just get Office for Mac to deal with this or is there another way? After reading through many volumes of info in the forums here, the general consensus is that it is better not to hang on to the "old" ms way? Regards, Gary [/QUOTE]
