[QUOTE="jjyank, post: 1004593, member: 106029"] Just for fun I'm going through the "configure my Mac" checklist in the Apple.com store for the MBP, just to get a better sense of pre-loaded options. I see there are two potential word processing softwares, iWork and MS Office Mac 2008. Are either of these good enough for basic word documents and spreadsheets? What is the difference? Office Mac is almost $100 more than iWork, but are there any advantages besides an assumed familiarity for an ex-Windows user? I don't mind a larger learning curve if it means I save money or if one product is better than the other. [/QUOTE]
