Hi Andy,

I think Pages and Numbers are  the two applications that I am most concerned 
about. I would advise you to ask all the questions about these And be sure to 
take a spreadsheet and document of your own to play with and make sure you get 
the answers before you sink your money into buying a MacBook only to find that 
you can't do what you want.

I have tried Pages on the phone and also Numbers with no real very good 
success. Well, they certainly haven't been good enough to persuade me that 
that's how I want to work. They may be better on the Mac itself, and that is 
something I do not know, and this is where you do need to discover for yourself.
