WIN XP & Office 97

[Peter]

I'm about to buy a new laptop with XP and have been told that MS Office 97
won't run on it. Is this true?

No, I have it installed and working, but get the service patches.

You've been told wrong. It runs on it just fine.

No, it's not true at all. However, Office 97's SR1 and SR1 updates are
recommended.
