Hello Dan, I had the same problem- had so many syllabi in Apple Works, I was not looking forward to exporting so many into iWorks - and I'm just not THAT fond of Pages yet. The nice feature about the Mac Pros is how easy it is to add another HD (it can take 4 - yum!). I found a smallish SATA drive, installed it, made it bootable into Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and reserved all my AW productivity for that volume alone, for which A-works still can run with Rosetta installed. When I'm done, I reboot into Lion (no ML yet) on the main drive and I am good to go with music work. Saved me having to find yet another app to contend with. HTH.
