David, you’ve echoed my sentiments completely. I still use MS office on the dark side for document preparation. I’m trying to love Pages, but it isn’t happening just yet. I’ve found no Word processing app on the mac that can compete with my other options in the OS, and that’s a shame because I really do like working on the mac for most other things like iTunes, Email etc.
