John There a big difference between good and great... If you have never used pages to date, then go out and get a copy and use it for 21 days - then ask yourself that same question! Appleworks was great in it's day but times moves on and iWorks and Pages is the future plus it's full of nice features. I guess it's a little like driving a 1964 car or a 2007 model car! Night & Day! Besides I use it in my business and it products a very 2007 professional look to my letters! Otherwise - Heres hoping all will have a Safe and Happy Holiday Season!
