iWork '06 Short Verdict Update...
I recently
posted this blurb and have to take it back. Although I still think performance should be better, it seems that somehow, something was wrong with my computer's config that day. Strange enough, though, that it was only Pages that showed the incredible slowness. Maybe it doesn't do well once the system's RAM is filled with too many applications etc.? Either way: Pages 2.0's lag problem is not as bad as I initially assumed based on my short testing period.
