MicroSoft Office97


MicroSoft Office97 includes Exel, PowerPoint, Word and other office tools.

This is available on SrO2 and OsO2 in the common area in the core lab.


To use Microsoft Office97 on an SGI O2 you launch Softwindows on the local O2 using the networked WIN95 drive. Do this by typing:

setup softwindows
swin

This will (slowly) launch a PC emulator running Windows95 with MSOffice97 installed.

Please note the cautionary message:

Do NOT create a "TurboStart" file on exit
It will deposit megabytes in your $HOME directory
