I have one of the first iMacs, OS 8.6, I think about 2000 and am thinking of
upgrading to a new one.
The only serious problem I've had until recently has been getting Microsoft
e-mail attachments which I can't open in Appleworks. Using Maclink plus
sometimes works but never very well.
Presumably, if I get  Microsoft Office for Mac that will be OK, but not if I
only get iWorks.
Alsp with a new Mac OSX, will documents etc I've created on my old iMac with
Appleworks and transferred to the new one automatically open when I use the
office for Works, or will I still be stuck with a translater?

Thanks,

Dick Anderson
