Hi
I just got a new iMac, and on my ibook I have Office X.
Will it run ok on my iMac under Rosetta or is it no point to install it?

If I decide on Openoffice instead, will X11 cause me any headaches?

I ask this as I seem to remember reading about people beeing against installing it on their machines

EDIT: I read up on X11 and it seems I should be familiar with Unix to use it, well I´m not so I guess I´ll find another solution (NeoOffice?)

I've got Office2004 running fine, v.X shouldn't be a problem.

Might as well try it.

You'll be fine, go ahead and install it.

I just installed it and it seems to run as well as on my ibook.
Thanks for the input
