These machines shipped with Claris Works pre-installed and on the system
CD - at least they did here in the UK. Claris Works is real easy to use
and comes with comprehensive on-line help - click on the question mark
icon, top right, when in Claris Works. I still use it for my normal word
processing, you don't need much horsepower for that!
Video equipped models also came with Avid Videoshop.
