Crossover Office from Codeweavers will allow your Dad to run MS Office apps on
Linux.

http://www.codeweavers.com/

I've seen it in action, it works very well, if you want to run Office apps but
get the fsck off Windows.

IIRC, there are some Linux distros that even come bundled with Crossover, like
Xandros and Lindows (if you can call that Linux).

BTW, you really should start a new thread instead of replying to an existing
thread and changing the subject.
