Hey there, I am with you on anything free for the Mac. We gift PCs and Macs
to folks who don't have access to technology. We have placed ton's o' Macs.
Think we could drop Microsoft Office on those G3s? Nah. We'll use the free
Corel Word Perfect version 3.5, Abiword, Open Office, whatever is compatible
with the OS we are placing. Free is good. Free is especially good for first
time users who don't have a computer in the first place because they can't
afford one.
