[R-SIG-Mac] Office integration

[Thomas Adams]

Adam,

I would suggest getting iWork for $79 (http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/software?mco=MTE2ODk 
) from Apple, which includes Pages, Numbers, & Keynote (wordprocessor,  
spreadsheet, presentation software, respectively). They are fully  
compatible with MS Office products. I have had no problem going  
between the Apple products and MS. For instance, one can directly open  
MS-Word docs in Pages and save directly to MS-Word. I work in a PC/WS- 
Windows environment and have not experienced any problems of  
significance.

Regards,
Tom
