I was thinking about using XP on my iBook, but it did not make any sense for me to do it. I know it is popular with college students, they can have all their apple needs together and XP for school.

Try the demo after you get your mac, it can be had on apples site. I didn't think it was all that hot personally. Neo Office works fine for me!

Yep, forgot about OO. I use it on all my other PCs, haven't actually tried the Mac Aqua version yet.

It's not bad at all really.

I have both OO and Iwork.. I like having something for if I'm lending my lap top to a class mate for a project real quick, happens often.

You'd know if you need it more then we do, not to come off rude though.

I need it and use it daily.
