Noland:
I have had six or seven books published, the first one in 1992, then
again in 1999, as well as articles, dating back even farther. All my
books were done with Microsolft Word, and I am still using it. None of
my publishers have ever had any problems due to my submitting text
with Microsoft Word. I am presently using Word 2004 and my Mac has
system 10.5.8. I never had any virus protection.
I don't know if Microsoft Word is the best application to use, but it
has been more than satisfactory for me. I actually preferred Word in
the early days, when it was simpler, but what I have now is OK.

After years of obstinately sticking with poor old outdated
AppleWorks, I've finally decided I have to face reality and switch
to a more current app, esp. one that's compatible with (ugh) PCs,
since I do a lot of work with editors on PCs; the Mac to PC
"translation" is time-consuming and uncertain. Checking around,
I've found Office 2008 for Mac Home, which has Word, Entourage,
PowerPoiint, and Excel (although I really only need Word and
occasionally, PowerPoint). All for $109.49. I'm wondering if
anyone in the Group has had experience with this app and can offer
advice. Also, I'm told that while the Mac platform is not likely to
get a virus (as we all know), the Office part needs virus
protection. Recommendations for that?
TIA
