Ah, I see, they didn't actually ASK anybody, they just looked at SALES
... because, of course, only a complete idiot (or an Apple fanboi)
could seriously consider iWork a "rival" to Office. Lack of a
spreadsheet is only one small aspect of that. Pages is completely
useless as a business word processor, and is further crippled by
its inability to edit in anything other than WYSIWYG mode.

And, of course, looking at sales means you don't notice what the
"unit" numbers are for Open Office.

Funny, too, that most of the article is about Corel, yet the
headline is all Apple.
