I use Apple NUC equivalents - Mac Minis. I use Libre Office and Pages 
(Apple). No real issues with either of them in working with M$ documents 
with the exception of the odd missing font here and there - and that is 
easily addressed. My reason for using Libre Office - it is cross 
platform so I can work with equal ease on Windows, Mac or Linux.
