And I expect the guys in the office often want to include fancy graphics 
into their Word documents, perhaps just company logos on a letter, or 
photos/diagrams in a report.  All of which rapidly use up memory and which 
would slow down hugely on a very slow machine.

Sure, they could use a plain text editor on an ancient machine with 32K of 
RAM, but it's not going to look very professional.
