Ok...this is sort of a follow up to my last question. What is the work processing program on the powerbook. The only one I can find is textedit. Is this really it? I can't even make columns with it. It also came with a trial version of Microsoft Office which won't even let me print.

I believe the PowerBook comes with AppleWorks (or at least my iBook did which I just purchased).
If it did not you have several options: Buy Microsoft Office (probably best choice except for the part of it being expensive) Buy AppleWorks (about $80) Download Apple's X11 along with OpenOffice (free)
OpenOffice tries to be like Microsoft Office (is actually based on StarOffice, and it is free as I just stated)
Summary: Can anyone here really help?? The answer I am getting is NO. I have posted two problems on this site, only one was addressed and the information was not helpful. Yet, all your PC v Mac ravings are no...
