I have absolutely no desire to start a platform war here, but a
factual error does need to be corrected.
The Mac does run a huge range of office software, including (and
definitely not limited to) such standard applications as MS Office
(Word and Excel etc), Filemaker Pro (databases), Pagemaker,
Photoshop, Illustrator, Quark, Freehand.
There is a vast range.
Check out http://www.apple.com and follow the links for the software database.
