Allan Jones is right that using the Windows+Office route adds extra expense, and with Windows 7 about to be put out to pasture, all you can buy an installer for is Windows 8.1 right now (MS is supposed to be releasing a Consumer Preview of Windows 10 shortly). I've always used Windows on a Mac as a virtual machine, specifically with VMware Fusion, but the installation process is remarkably simple and once Windows is running, it's basically a PC running in a window on your Mac. Again, I haven't used MS Office for Mac but I've read complaints here from people familiar with Office for Windows that capabilities are missing on the Mac version. If you're careful to save all the LibreOffice-created files in Microsoft file formats, should you eventually settle on MS Office, you'll still be able to use them. ![]() ![]() I don't make heavy use of Office, either the MS version or LibreOffice, but given that LibreOffice is free, I'd recommend first trying it out to see if it does all of what you need. ![]() Sorry for all the questions, I'm new to Mac so I'm starting from scratch, I think I need lessons!! If I wanted to install windows for my Mac how would I do this?
