Great Product
Written by DS from Rochdale
Jan 6, 2009
Great update to the previous version. Now includes additions such as the ability to undelete actions at last! You can now send documents directly into e-mails as PDF / Word / Excel formats and also publish documents to iWork for others to add notes and also to download. Pages now includes mail merge with numbers, a great full screen view and lots of other additions which makes it more intuitive to use. Numbers at last gives the average user much easy ways of adding formulas and table categories to spreadsheets.
As an average user who uses the software for home and small business, it does everything that i need and now with the easier ways of sharing documents in the mainstream formats i can completely ditch office for mac. …More277 of 295 people found this useful

Keynote 09 fixes an export bug that caused presentations with presentation notes to be unreadable in Powerpoint. C'mon Apple... you're nearly there! …More

iwork beats office
Written by MF from Barnet
Nov 25, 2009
Pages is far better for documents than word and its page layout is for my purposes is much easier to get results than top end quark or indesign.
Keynote is also superior to powerpoint, although I find excel easier to use than numbers. My main irritant is the use of separate pallete for fonts ( menu) and text alignment ( inspector). It would be much easier in the same place. …MoreWas this useful?
