Is Word in Office:Mac2008 the same as PC version?

[californiablonde2008]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger)
Processor: intel

If I learn how to use Word, will I be able to use the Windows or PC Version if I need to in the future for a job?

The principles are largely the same; however, as of Office 2007
(Windows)/Office 2008 (Mac), there have been significant differences not
only as far as the interface is concerned, but also the functionality in
general. Word 2007 on Windows offers far more features than the Mac version,
and, depending on your needs, this is the version you should get. However,
to give you an adequate answer, we would need to know what exactly your
requirements are/will be.

If you learn to use it "Well", yes

Word PC is a larger and more complex version of Word:Mac
