Hi all!
I'm going to be trying out a Mac here probably the beginning of the year after a lifetime of DOS/Windows PC work. I think I've got just about everything figured out to make the switch go well, but I had one quick question.
I plan, for a bit, to use MS Word 2010 via Parallels until Apple and Microsoft bring out a new version of their office applications and see which I would want to spend money on. However, without Pages or Word for Mac installed, will Finder be able to search the text of normal .DOC files (not the newer DOCX, I don't make use of that for compatibility reasons at work). Is that something OS X can natively do or do I need to have something else installed for that to work?
Thanks!
