DEREKP  Apple will have to try a lot harder with Pages'08 if they are going to compete with Word. Pages'08 offers a lot more freedom than Word, especially when dealing with graphics. However, when it comes down to importing text or combining documents, there is really no solution, except a really bad headache. Apple needs to sort out all the quarks to make this program a little more user-friendly and perhaps it will have a chance against Microsoft. I hate to say it, but Word is still a lot less confusing, but Apple has approved since the '06 version.
