Ready to upgrade a few programs and have a question:

What should I use for Word Processing, etc. In the past I have relied on AppleWorks. However, this is no longer supported. Additionally, my wife (this is her iMac) would like to open word (.doc) files that friends send her in email. This is a purely recreational iMac (not for business use) and I can't affort or justify spending $500 on Microsoft Office v.X for it (that is nearly 3X what we have invested in the computer).

What about iWork or NeoOffice? iWork doesn't have any form of spreadsheet, but appears to be more stable than NeoOffice...Will both (or either) of them open Word Documents (.doc) or Power Point Presentations?

iWork 06 has a rudimentary support for "table with formulas" inside Pages 2.0, Keynote will open PPT files and Pages opens .doc documents
without any real problem.

I really recommend both programs that are simple to use and yet very powerful. Furthermore the resulting documents
are really outstanding.

A must.

When you have read the price tag, you are totally convinced.

I am a fan of these apps, really.

(Please keep in mind this is my opinion, not a scientific fact.)
