Thank you very much.
HI David,
AppleWorks is a single application with 6 included environments or modules, not a suite of applications in the manner of iWork or MS Office, So far, there have been few, if any reports concerning problems with specific types of AW documents under Leopard.
Warren Williams wrote in the November issue of the AWUG Journal that AWUG would purchase and install Leopard on one machine for the purpose of testing how well specific software works on it. That may already be under way, and will probably lead to an extensive report similar to the one posted on the AWUG home page (link in the group of links at the bottom of this page) done when the intel based Macs were introduced.
Meantime, the basic difference between AppleWorks under Leopard and under Tiger (on a G5 tower) is that it's much faster under Leopard.
Regards,
Barry
