If she was able to get Office for Windows inexpensively at her school, she could probably get a similar price on Office for Mac. My college (I am on the faculty) has a site license, so I was able to get Office 2001 for $15 for my computer. I could have also had the Windows version. Aleernatively, she could get Connectix virtual PC for about $1`50-$200 and use the Windows disk. Donna Pointer-- iMac, ergo iAm
