We found ourselves in dire need of a printer and some photocopies. Naturally, we headed to Kay-D's.
The person working at Kay-D's indicated that we could print our document and have some copies made. But the single computer in the store did not have Microsoft Office installed.
Need we say more?
In all fairness, Kay-D's advertises itself as a place to rent a mailbox, send packages and make travel arrangements. We were hoping for something more.
Bubble bursted.
If I may quote "LeffertsLiving", one of the more progressive contributors to this blog:

Maybe you could convince them to install OpenOffice 2.0?
It's free and it can read and write more MS Word document format versions than MS Word itself. (It doesn't have all the same fancy editing features, but you presumably wouldn't need those when printing, so long as they had your favorite fonts installed on their computer.)
Microsoft has even paid Novell over $100 million to make it read and write Microsoft's next Word document format.
