Not unless you want to use the software. In that case you will need Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac which you will have to purchase. You can also install the free alternative Open Office for Mac.
Microsoft Word 2011 for Mac. Click the link for the download.
No, but you can use Office Mac 2011. To download a trial version, see the related link.
Microsoft's PowerPoint (See links below) is part of their Office software suite. It is installed with the standard installer - double click the installer and follow the prompts.
If you are running Microsoft Office for Mac you need no security software just common sense. I do however recommend you install the Safari Extension Web Of Trust (WOT). You can also get it for other browsers. It will warn you of malicious web sites.
YES, YOU CAN USE "MICROSOFT OFFICE HOME & STUDENT 2007" ON A MAC. THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT IS THE PRICE!!! IF YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY $150 GO AHEAD. I BOUGHT THE SOFTWARE AND IN MY EXPERIENCE WITH IT, I WOULD HAVE TO GIVE IT A "3 OUT OF 10"!!! NOW "iWORK" IS ALMOST HALF THE PRICE AND I GIVE IT A "10 OUT 10" IT HAS PAGE, NUMBERS, AND KEYNOTES WHICH ARE THE SAME AS WORD, EXEL, AND POWERPOINT BUT BETTER.
Use Bootcamp, which comes preinstalled on the iMac, to install Windows on your iMac. You can the dual boot to Windows and play any Windows game you want. Know that you will have to install security software on the Windows partition if you go online of do email on that partition.
