I have text wrangler on the iBook, and use it for my html. I have
tried doing documents in Appleworks and save them as word doc's but no
one has had success opening them. thus office.mac.
AppleWorks is long-discontinued; Apple's Pages (part of iWork, which is
a "simple" office suite) can create Word documents, as can the free
OpenOffice, and even TextEdit (built into Mac OS X); and the online
Google Docs can handle Word; each can open most Word documents too; this
is ignoring an even larger collection of tools that can produce RTF;
there are definitely features missing from each (though OpenOffice is
pretty complete) and a few compatibility issues; i have Office 2004, but
only launched Word once or twice in 2010
