Yeah there is a very basic game inside office, do a google search and you should find out what version of office and how to get into it......... Rolling Eyes

read this thread:

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Applications/MS_Of fice/Q_20853140.html

That pretty much sums up what Microtech computers are worth in my opinion, there are better options. Has anyone tried to get tech support from Microtech themselves:

Shit happens............... Shocked

Used to be VERY common on older computers

the Amigas had heaps of it as it was the time when IT guys didnt get payed shit thay did it for the love of the job thus the chipset chips are all named after wife's, girfriends or children

Ahh the good old days of IT

Dude, soooo many car places don't like using e-mail, but use it because they have to. Seriously dude, RING them, they are in the same state. That said, I'm not surprised they aren't really forthcoming with the tech support for such an old computer.
