This is off topic because it is a Mac question with windows.

My question is my friend has an old Mac. I believe that he made all his documents in ether apple
works or clairs(sp) works. Is there a version of openoffice that would run in os9.2? What I was
thinking of doing was to convert his files from appleworks or clairsworks to openoffice. Save
them to cd or usb and then transfer them to an XP box with openoffice. This is the only idea that
I have come up with to fix this. He eventually will buy ms office, but I am trying to convince
him otherwise. I think that if can convince him how flexable and usefull open source has been to
him, he will give a good run through.
