I need MS word documents from students to open, and to ba able to edit them, and to be able to do formatting. I have MS Office but I lost the disk, and I really don't want to buy it again, since as soon as I can switch all my software over to my new Mac, I will switch from using windows on the mac to leopard. In the meantime, that will cost me more than I feel like paying after spending 3,000 on the macbook pro (which is working fine now by the way) Otherwise I just use InDesign for everything like that, but having students that only have Word causes issues, because I cannot easily edit, and also many of my old files that I use very semester but with some tweaking here and there, only come up in a read only MS viewer right now. I know I have MS Office somewhere but cannot find the disk. I may need to buy it anyway, since some students occasionally send stuff in powerpoint. Seems like a waste to spend $200 when I can spend about $700 to switch everything to the mac side. What is the mac version of word and powerpoint anyways? Do you have to buy it separate from Microsoft? Anyone know? OffWorld
