iWork 09 is the latest version of Apples productivity suite for Macs. This fourth major iteration adds several long-awaited features to the trinity of applications — the Pages word processor, Numbers spreadsheet and Keynote presentations tools — incl...

Creates professional-looking documents with ease; simple user interface belies powerful features; fixes many shortcomings with iWork 08.

Some standard productivity suite features still missing; patchy Microsoft Office compatibility.

If you need to create professional-looking documents, but cant face the learning curve — or the cost — of Microsoft Office, then iWork 09 is an obvious choice at a bargain price. Limited Office compatibility makes it best-suited to environment...

Apple has a lot to boast about in iWork 09, the latest version of its productivity application suite and still the only one written from the ground up for OS X. Keynote, still the most dazzling presentation program on any platform, now offers spect...

Innovative, graphically dazzling suite. Highly compatible with Microsoft Office documents. Canvas-style page holds multiple tables. Presentation software outclasses competitors. Great bang for the buck.

Not as feature-rich as Microsoft Office. Sample templates too elaborate for most users. No view that hides top, bottom page margins.

Apples productivity suite isnt yet a replacement for Microsoft Office for the Mac, but iWork 09 offers a terrific set of programs for light word processing and medium-to-heavy spreadsheet use. And the stellar Keynote presentation app leaves the comp...
