    Can someone run a test on a MB screen for me?

    Please? I need to see if I can go about my daily student life with a macbook. Here's what I need to know:

    open the MSWord and PDF file attached here, and place the two windows side by side vertically. Zoom out on both windows until you can see a full line in the window without having to use the vertical scroll bar (make sure the lines are centered, meaning there's either no space between the lines and the windows or there's equal amount of space between each line and the left and right window borders). Now that everything's fitted on the screen, tell me how small the text is and whether it's readable or not. A print screen would be nice if you could attach one.

    Thank :D :D :D :D

    I think this is what you want. I can read the text just fine.

    I'm assuming that's a macbook, not a pro, right?

    Hi, I run OpenOffice on my PC but am switching to Mac... Is NeoOffice pretty much the same as OpenOffice 2.0??

    Thanks !

    I recommend you post a new forum to answer your question. That way, more people will see it.
