macbook neo need help guys

[cplbao]

windows based
just office 2016-2021 not even 365
outlook word excel powerpoint adobe reader

You do know office 2016 already EOL 2023 right?

If you buy a newer license for Office 2024 probably cost abit more and good till 2031?

And if your excel uses vba and scripts / macros that may not be usable in a Mac environment.

Outlook, since you use outlook. Who is the host for your exchange server?

Better do a inventory what the business does and the nature of the business.

young man, ur job do ur own research, go down Apple Store ask the Mac genius, do internet search, drill down finer points urself.

this one basic academic research, nothing to do whether u admin or IT role leh.

ur boss delegate task to u, instead of checking things out by yourself, u asking EDMW to hand u answers and den u use those answers to pad "your research" and "your work"?

like this u might as well give us ur pay for us to do ur delegated task for u, u IT guy needs to be fired also. Clearly, if he's competent enuff in his job, he would had made the apt recommendations liao.
