    What do I need to run these on Macbook? I was kind of walking the line about getting a Macbook after seeing prices of the refurbished Apples.

    What do I need to use Omniform and Wordperfect. Will they run natively on the Macbook, or do I need to run Bootcamp, or is there something else i should know about?

    If those are both Windows only you have two options, boot camp or virtualization such as Parallels. I don't believe either one of those programs are very demanding so their performance in Parallels should be good.
