I am about to start using my G4 Powerbook (1.5 GHz, 512, OSX v 10.3.9)
at work and just purchased Office Professional because of the fact VPC
is bundled with it. I already have Office loaded (teacer/student pack)
and wonder what will happen when I load this newer version?

I think VPC is on a separate CD, so it will be very easy to only install
VPC. The Office versions (word/excel/ppt/entourage) are no different from
each other.

Sounds like I should return the Pro edition and just buy VPC then?
