Hi guys,
I'm new to the Mac universe and need some guidance. I recently bought a Macbook, and so far I love it. I'm looking for a decent WP. I use Writley quite a bit and Openoffice for XP. I noticed Openoffice has a version for OS X, but it looks a little complicated to set up, X11 and all. Remember I'm still learning how to cut and paste, never mind installing non-native OS X apps.
I don't feel like dishing out $200+ for M$ Word, however I would like a WP that it to be compatible with it. Any suggestions? What is the most common WP for OS X? iWork? Mellel? Nisus? Is Openoffice easier to install than it looks?
Thanks again
