Office 2k works fine on XP, the person who tells you otherwise has no idea what they're talking about. The license agreement for the
Office software does require that it be uninstalled from the old system however.

The sales person you are dealing with is both woefully misinformed, and, if
on commission, GREEDY. Your Word is good to go on XP.
