Wrong.

In 15+ years and thru every version on BOTH platforms I have yet to encounter incompatabilities.

As far as Powerpoint it's usually a font conflict issue which can happen going from one Mac to another, a Mac to a PC or even a PC to a PC.

I bet I hit Lotto before you run into a cross platform issue with Office.

And the latest version of Office for the Mac runs better than Office for the PC.
