 I just love it!!!! March 10, 2008

I wasn't so sure at first if it was worth to upgrade from iWork 06 to the new iWork 08. And even after the 30 day trial I couldn't make up my mind. But I am so glad I did. There are a lot of improvements that are worth the money. I love the fact, that I no longer have to transform a Pages-File into a PDF-File to send it to my friends that don't own a Mac but a PC. I simply export the desired Pages-File into a Doc-File-Format and can send it to my Friends that own a PC. And they can not only read this file but also write (change) in it. Same goes for the new NUMBERS and Excel. There are so many great things and improvements, that it is impossible to list them all.
The only issue I have with PAGES is, that I am still unable to hyperlink files to one another. :-( Maybe next time...

iWork works the way I work. February 16, 2008

I finally uninstalled everything Microsoft from my computer, and wow! What a difference. iWork opens Word, Excel and Powerpoint files that you already have or receive from other people. iWorks can also export everything you create in Word, Excel and Powerpoint formats so if you need to share a file with someone using Microsoft Office, it's a snap.
The programs are so much more intuitive than the Microsoft suite. iWorks handles fonts, colors and text the way you would expect as a Macintosh user-Apple quality throughout. You have the features and tools that you use most clearly displayed in the icon bar in a very intuitive, efficient arrangement (the folks at Apple actually think about how people use these products).
If you already have the iWorks trial installed on a new Macbook or Pro, all you need is the serial number from the package you buy here to unlock it-you don't need to install from the disks. That said, it is always a good idea to have the disks, just in case.
Apple iWork "08 - Numbers February 10, 2008
I have been using iWork '08 for a little over a month now, and am very pleased. Pages has helped me get several student recommendation letters written very easily. I have prided myself on generating my own formats or templates, but the ones included with Pages are good looking, work well, and are easy to adapt to my individual needs and style. Most of the work I have done has been with Numbers. I maintain a variety of records, and have found the tables in iWork '06 and now '08 useful for many of them, but have been using a very fine open-source software for records which flow better onto a spreadsheet. That is a very fine program with great versatility, but Numbers is even more fluent to use, and as it runs "native" and not by means of Java, opening times are speedier. Again, the templates give you a quick start, but can readily be tweaked to suit your individual requirements. The "Inspector" approach to accessing various aspects of a document is useful and convenient once learned. A real asset is Numbers' ability to open and edit an Excel file, and then export that work as a file which will be readable with Excel. Pages can do the same with Word. And they do so more readily and successfully than any other programs I have tried. Since Excel and Word are ubiquitous, but also more expensive to put onto a Mac computer than iWork '08, I feel that Apple has scored a bases-loaded home run with that kind of interoperability.
