Some Microsoft programs work on Macs. If you have an old Mac, it will most likely not work. You need to have new and updated Macs. You also need to make sure you buy a Microsoft program that works with Macs.
This is because the way programs run on Macs and Windows is very different, and if a company like Microsoft wants to make something for OSX they need to spend time trying to convert it over.

Obviously, there is Microsoft Word, provided by Microsoft for Windows. (Part of the Microsoft office collection) And there is Page, provided by Apple for Macs.

These include TextEdit for Mac, and Wordpad or Notepad for Windows.
