A very early initial draft of this review was posted on OSNews many months ago. The final version just went live and is about three times as long, now including open source alternatives, as well as a review of the new online word processor solutions.

To be fair 14 Word processors have been covered, I'm not even through reading it btw, and includes most I have heard of, and I've never heard of pages.
The picture of MS-OOXML specification is worth a look if nothing else.
the strangest thing is "Second rule: be happy with your choice, because statistics show you're not likely to change."
I think a lot of old Wordperfect users would disagree with this one.

Pages is the word-processing app that is part of Apple's iWork. Surely you have heard of iWork?
I too was rather disappointed that Pages was missing from the review since iWork has gotten some great reviews but never in direct comparison to so many other word-processors (and I can't try it out myself since I don't have a Mac (yet)).

Why hasn't Pages been included? Is this review limited to apps running on Windows?
