In any event, save yourself money by using the OpenOffice suite instead of MS Office, regardless of platform. For 99+% of the users, it does everything you need.I would suggest that it's 99% of home users. For some of us (even at home), the capabilities available via macros and functions in VBA are worth the expense.

OpenOffice has macros and functions, too. You'd have to rewrite any existing ones, as while it also uses a form of BASIC, the APIs are soemwhat different, but that's a one-time porting cost.
There's also a repository of OpenOffice macros.
