you do need updated software then.
i imagine Pages will open your old Word documents, and it's a mere £13.99. not 100%, there do seem to be compatibility issues with office docs sometimes.
MS Office must be £60+ but it will have Excel etc. with it. probably loads of hooky copies about. no private punter ever pays for office IME. there's a reason it's the most popular office suite in the world

The opposite direction finger scrolling thing can be turned off or at least put back to how it was it the trackpad settings.
There are a few more gestures that have been added that you can find in there. At first I thought the reveal desktop gesture had been removed but it just got changed to thumb and fingers.

I really like both Pages and Keynote, but not a great fan of Numbers. I downloaded Openoffice and its spreadsheet was fine and more Excel like.
Maybe worth looking at Openoffice as a replacement for MS Office.

Lion has made no noticeable improvement in speed.
I have lost the "saveas" in preview which may seem a small issue, but when you are adjusting lots of images daily it's a f**king pain in the arse!
Also had quite a few programs crashing, firefox for one.
Best thing is you can now resize windows from any side or corner as windows users have done for 12 years!!

Well I don't adjust lots of images on a daily basis, and I don't use Firefox, so no probs there then Red1
More important things in life to consider than 'resizing windows'
By the way, is that really your home page ....
I rather thought that it was the home page of RAM!

It is one of many sites I look after, that one for RAM, which has significance for this forum, my actual home page is motoring-news.com
After many years of using both OS X and Windows I still don't think that OS X is the pancea of computing. Windows is for 90% of users a good choice.

can any of you guys help with my conundrum , ive got a mac
but just upgraded to lion and it stopped me using my word on it ,
It says you can't open the microsoft word application because powert pc is no longer supported i need this for my cv etc .any ideas Oh computer geeks
Get pages mate. As mentioned on here its £13.99 from the App store, loads in about 4-5 mins. Its got a great CV template, along with lots of other really useful stuff.
It opened my old CV and with a few tweaks it looks better, but then i'm not looking for another job......
and KEYNOTE is another great application. My report on my Europe Holiday last year was done on Keynote (both iPad & iMac versions). http://s896.photobucket.com/albums/ac161/Skyenet007/Eurotrip 2010 Presentation/
Not just as fond of NUMBERS though. In fact I installed Openoffice just to use its spreadsheet which I found easier to do the things I wanted and get it printed out.
Ten minutes tutorial from Shaun at Rainbow and I'd done a slideshow in Keynote, for a talk and presentation I'm giving, in half an hour
