I use Open Office by Apache Software, a freeware program that's easy to download and use. It has a word program as well as a decent spreadsheet program and a presentation program too (thankfully I'm fully retired and don't need that!) It is compatible with MS Word, so you can use it with docs or spreadsheets previously created on Word.

His issue is when going mobile he does not want the bulkiness of an external keyboard. Repairing the existing keyboard is what OP desires. Last edited by RoadToad; 02-15-2021 at 09:06 AM. |

I use it. It's similar and works fine.

Try this first before paying to fix.

Google docs and sheets are ready to use, compatible with MS Office and free. If you use gmail, you already have it available!

They can also offer some viable options if you decide to replace your existing machine. In my experience MMD knows their stuff and is not out to take advantage of those of us who are not tech savvy. |

Lenovo
Open Office is available at Ninite.com.
Lenovo makes bad products. My m720 lasted a few weeks. It was replaced last month by a m900 which also crashed --for the same reason, bad SSDs. |

The OP didn't mention if the laptop is a Windows laptop or a Mac laptop. If it's a Windows laptop, then now could be the opportunity to switch to a Mac laptop, and be free of all the headaches and security risks that are associated with the Windows laptops. It costs a lot more for the Mac laptop, but the Mac laptop is much better. It's like driving a Lexus or a Yugo. If the OP can afford it, I recommend the Mac laptop, which will be good for about 10 years, before it has to be replaced. Another thing to consider is your quality of life. If you can afford the better Mac laptop, why not buy it, instead of saving the extra money for the nursing home to gobble up, or the grandkids to waste on things like sports cars, that will get them into trouble. |
