[QUOTE="didymus, post: 964349, member: 98293"] The is the only bit I can comment on as a long-time Windows and Office user. If you are accustomed to the Msoft product, iWorks will slow you down - you have to search for things that are intuitive with Word and Excel. The Mac version of Office is somewhere between Office 2003 and Office 2007/8, usable, but, again, not the original version. So, the option is to install virtual machine software to allow you to switch from Windows to OS X in the course of a session at the keyboard. The choices are the free Virtual Box, Parallels and VMFusion. I use VMFusion and find that I can work happily with Office for Windows in one "space" and the OS X applications in another. [/QUOTE]
