Happy New Year Terry, For DAY TO DAY use iWorks should serve as well as MS Office. Here are a couple of links - one pushing IWorks http://noneinteraction.com/ms-office-2008-vs-apple-iwork08 The other not so much http://education.zdnet.com/?p=1550 On compatibility see http://www.macworld.com/article/133041/2008/04/iwork08office2008.html I use iWorks almost all the time now with almost no disruption in workflow. It all boils down to what your needs are.
