If you need options, go ebay shopping and look for Star/Open Office. This
can also be downloaded free BUT, look for several hours download time. Lotus
is available there too both go for less than $20.00. Be sure you know how
much RAM his system has. Goto emachines.com and download the specifications
for this system OR run Belarc Advisor which will produce a report of all
parts of the system.
Old does not mean useless......
