Hi Tammy:
There is a fairly decent app built-in called text-edit, which you will access
from either your dock, (like a taskbar at the bottom of the screen) or from the
Applications folder, (which you can reach with command-shift-A. You can read
microsoft documents if they are converted to rtf files. Otherwise, Apple's
word processor of choice is Pages, which you can find in your mac app store.
It is part of the Iwork suite.
I'd recommend starting with the VO tutorial on your Mac, and also the welcome
to snow leopard, and which is a pdf file on your computer, there is also a
self contained users guide. The Apple website has a lot of good simple reading
text explanations of the operating system. On apple.com, go to support, and
look up Mac101, or getting started, or switching.
If you prefer podcast tutorials, there are a boatload of them on
blindcooltech.com.
If you need more specifics on any of this, contact me off list and I'll be
glad to help.
