OT: imac Classic install problems

[gooddogcomics at mac.com]

Thanks, Mike;

Is there any list of files NOT to install, that aren't needed?  I'm 
mainly looking to install Word and Excel, and maybe a few others, 
nothing too big though, like Photoshop.

Do you have any details on how to set it up so Word can run without a 
hitch?

Thanks again.

Mark
