         Not sure but is Corel WordPerfect 3.5 non-PPC capable? I have it 
on my 2300. The best part is it is free now! Has been for a few years. Who 
says you need word or office! ;)

         Alternatively, an old version of ms works might do the trick. 
Now  that takes me back to high school and the good old Mac Plus's we used 
then! :)
