To Mikey P, I actually own a copy of iWork '08 (Mac) as well as Office '07 (PC), and frankly pal, iWork is light years ahead of the M$'s dinosaur. M$ has even gone so far as trying to copy iWork 06's interface and basic organization. Numbers is so much more efficient a program than Excel and allows our company to store our data, our way, in a significantly more intelligent arrangement than Excel. Further, Power Point has never even come close to matching Keynote for ease of use, integration with other applications, and quality of output...even in Office 07. And Pages already offers an attractive and equally useful alternative to Word. So much so, that we're dropping all of our copies of Office 07 on eBay later this week. Bye, bye M$. If iWork is the 80's, Office is the 70s.
I'd like to amend my previous post...iWork's interface and integration with the rest of the OS is light years ahead of Office. Excel is still more powerful overall than Numbers, and Word is a more complete word processor than Pages. That said, Keynote makes PowerPoint '07 look archaic, even with Escher (Microsoft's latest less-than-stellar attempt at a quality rendering engine), and Pages is a significantly better page layout program than Word 07 (even with Word's new page layout features). Of course, I judge the entire suite as a professional creative director and freelance graphic designer, and not as an accountant or business manager. Now if iWork '08 would just play a little nicer with Office.
