[QUOTE="focalplane, post: 464651, member: 34222"] The decision wasnt too hard for me. I am getting iWork '08 with my Macbook Pro. I use office every day on Windows in work, and its fine, but even in work i dont need the level of fuctionality it offers. Pages in iWork '08 offers a straight word processing mode, so you can get the job done without any page layout stuff. OpenOffice is free, however the Aqua version is not a stable release, to run the normal OSX version on a mac you need to install X11 (from the apple site) I was going to go for NeoOffice originally as it is also free, but with the introduction of numbers, i have everything i need (i hope - havent used it yet :) ) [/QUOTE]
