[QUOTE="caribiner23, post: 362933, member: 9169"] Pages (iWork) is not a word processor in the sense that Word is. While it makes beautiful documents (my CV blows away everyone who sees it :-), I find it non-intuitive and lacking several very simple formatting features. I've also found that except for the simplest of documents, Pages' export-to-Word functionality isn't all it should be. Documents simply do not come out formatted as you expect when they're exported. My recommendation: if you (or people you regularly share documents with) plan on using Microsoft Office at all, you're better off going with MS Office or one of the Open Source suites. If you want to make pretty brochures, reports, and resumes, iWork is better. [/QUOTE]
