Features, Office 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.

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)).

Looks like the uncomparability of Pages is due to the fact that it is Apple only.

The Apple world is very distant from either Linux or Windows, so I am not surprised to see this happen.

Btw, this review seems to be infact a "Windows Only" review, because KWord, one of the better "second tier" wordprocessors is omitted although AbiWord was tested, which plays in the same league (with Kword coming out first in my opinion ;) ).
