[Ham-Mac] MAC software question

[Wolfgang Mahlke]

Hello Jacob,

I just bought an macMini and the AppleWorks was installed. I love this 
Wordprocessor, but to be more compatible I installed also the neooffice 
(www.noroffice.org). This is a special edition from openOffice, which 
is better adapted to the MacOsX.
My family uses this now on different macs for more than a year, and no 
one has had any prblems in exchange their files with the compatible 
friends.
