Just a question to ask: is MS Office really better than iWork? or are they both just the same as open office or neo office?

I don't think it is "better" but it does feel more user friendly especially people are just to used to the work flow of office.

Well, if in such case, I think I will go for iWork instead of Office since I have enough pain with Office 2008. IT TOO SLOW ON MAC!!!

However, if you always have to share your file across Macs and PCs I do recommend sticking with office. Same as if you're editing your document on a PC in school and your Mac at home... Office does have better compatibility across Macs and Pcs.

Personally, I use open office at home. There is always alignment issue when I bring the document over to a PCs....

Cheers,

Thanks, I guess right now I will install iWork on my Mac and Office 2007 on the XP running on my Mac.

It is always good to have both world in the same machine...

Cheers,
