You can read and write word documents in it. Sadly though, there's a good deal of stuff that is different accessibility wise mainly in automatic position awareness.

You'll probably want to go to pages at some point..

There are advantages and disadvantages to both areas and depending on your requirements for windows and the version of windows in question, you would have some scope. I find the use of both bootcamp and VMWare a very useful setup. if you need further information, please don't hesitate to ask and I'll squeeze in a little time to help you out. lew On 10 Jul 2013, at 15:50, "Drew Hunthausen" <dhunthausen@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I'm new to this list and don't yet have a Mac.
