Haven't you heard? Didn't you read at the first of the week that we are
officially over apple products?

If you're still using Micro$oft crap, you haven't consumed your allotment of
Apple Kool-Aid yet.

Check out iWork. It does 99% of what I'd use MicroCrap for, at 1/6th the
price and about 4x the performance. Keynote is a stunning replacement for
Micosloth SourPoint. Pages does incredible things, incredibly easy, but
stumbles on translating some .DOC files from Microsloth Turd. Numbers is
simply amazing in improved usability over Microsloth Ex-Hell and reads
Ex-Hell files pretty well... but it doesn't do pivot tables. (If you don't
know what a "pivot table" is, you'll be fine with Numbers.)

There should be a new version of iWork out Any Day Now. Don't let that stop
you from downloading the free 30-day demo.

Oh. You didn't pay for your copy of Word that won't install? Sympathy--. :-)
