    ok.. this is just funny...
    if this is an intel mac, you can install windows xp a few different ways. two that i know of would be: bootcamp and parallels. in which case, nearly all pc software, if not all, will work on it. it has an intel processor, it was windows xp natively installed. so you are technically running a PC..

    it you have a powerpc processor in your mac, it would be a little harder. most programs are now, at least the major ones, have versions for MAC, such as Microsoft Office; which includes MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, MS Entourage, & MS Messenger.
