Default Virtual pc for mac

Been trying to find a share or free download so I can communicate with the PC world. Any Ideas?:
Been trying to find one but everything I've downloaded so far didn't work for one reason or another.

PS-LOve my MAC, just hate being somewhat cutoff.:

VPC should work fine, unless you are using an Intel Mac.

If you are savvy enough, you could try Bochs as well:

Default Correction-all I need is microsoft office for mac.

Thanks Adrynalyne for the reply, but I was wrong. All I need is Microsoft office for MAC to do what I need to do (read & save .doc files). The problem with my recent attempts to obtain VPC was not it running on my iMAC, but the viablilty of the downloads. One came up "expired in 2005" another was just an upgrade for VPC, I just need to find a download for microsoft office or word for mac.

PS-I'll look at Bochs but I'm not that savvy. I know guitars a lot more than I know computers.

Thanks again & any suggestions outside of limewire.

No talk of warez here.

Office for Mac runs about 99-150, if you qualify for the stuent version. Otherwise, if you need a word processor, mellel is great.

There is Neo Office as well:

Yeah, I was going to say, I've been running MS Office on my OSX box for a loong time. You shouldn't have any problems getting it to run, you'll just need to pick up the OSX-specific version.
