pages and numbers suck compared to word and excel, though.

I havent seen a microsoft application on mac yet that I liked. They've all been awful.

That said, anything i do in word / excel is done in google docs now. I dont do anything too crazy, but im 100% google docs, and I love it.

Swish still hating on Mac because he is too broke to afford nice things. Spend less time on forums, more time working on that bank account amigo.

Macs are as susceptible to slowdown as PCs though, plus with macs you generally have a hard time playing a lot of the latest games right?

Wrong, and wrong.

You don't know what you are taking about, but, being the village idiot, you continue to TryHard. It isn't just marketing that has put Apple where they are. But you have no experience using their products, just hearsay and like a monkey you repeat what you heard someone else say.

You know what grinds my gears about google docs?

When you are doing a purely digital document, and it still has page breaks.

I mean come on at this point can we just nix the old 8.5x11 nonsense & make a page rule be 8.5x∞ already? its 2016 almost for chrisakes.

I mean I know were a little behind the times with our 'gaming' preferences, but when it comes to writing a document amiright?!

@ op - the pencil is for artists etc, not for average users. and the new ipad doesn't require a stylus to use it, so they are still on track there.

What's wrong with a pad of paper and a pencil, for "artists".

Did Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Donatello and Raphael use ipads? No sir.

Yeah because when I am browsing a large document I want to flick the scroll wheel for 5 minutes until I get to the 175,000 word, rather than skip to page 500...

I love sketching, but digital art is vastly more efficient. You are able to generate a work and multiple variations thereof much more rapidly. You are also able to achieve a much greater degree of realism because you don't have to worry about the nuances if the medium. The digital workflow is really the creative process distilled ^^

I have to agree with maskedmelon on this. It's still convenient to skip to page xx, or to know that if you print the doc, where the page breaks are.

well think of it this way, if someone wrote a contents for you with page #'s.. or refered you to a page #.. it would be just as easy to send you a link to the page location.. like, its been solved b4 my pals long long ago when the internet was in its infancy.

Edit* on printing: in a digital world printing is leas and less valuble and I concede if thats what you do at work, then its fine with me if you add a 'add page breaks option' in my utopian verson of google docs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
