You can get SWB which is a Seamonkey port for OpenVMS and
that should give you web browser and email.

I have never tried it and I would expect it to be rather
slow on a XP1000, but if you can live with the speed then
you are all set for those.

Office? Nothing from this decade or the previous decade!
