Hi. I only use office at college. I have windows on a vm on my mac, but the fact is, that I can't afford office anyway. I do what I can with the word processors i have and then if there is something that must be done in office I do it at college. However if office did become accessible on the mac I may consider purchasing it.
Blessings! Maria Joe and loving guide Karly.
