In all seriousness though,

I'm going to use this computer for my studies. It will be my version of the Retr0challenge. I'm a Mechanical Engineering student, so CAD like Solidworks or CATIA won't run on this for sure but I could produce exel and word documents and even print them with a Imagewriter II if I can get a cheap one.

Office hasn't evolved much. (it still looks awful compared to iWork IMO) But I bet they couldn't tell the difference.

I'll give that a try one day.

You can run AutoCAD, TurboCAD, DesignWorks and several other CAD an drawing programs on this set you have, as long as your System and RAM is good with it (Some want System 6, others System 7, all with 4MB or more of RAM). The problem I see as a possible issue is file compatibility with modern programs compared with the older ones.
