@Tim Acheson Numbers is admittedly sub-par, but I find Keynote vastly more powerful and capable of producing professional striking presentations than PowerPoint. You can achieve similar results in PowerPoint but with a hell of a lot more effort. Pages is actually really good for producing worksheets (I'm a teacher) and the ability to save to a PDF natively (as you can in all OS X apps) makes it very easy to create a non-editable electronic copy I can fling up on to our Virtual Learning Environment for students who missed the class/lost the sheet/have a hungry dog that ate the homework happy

Numbers isn't very good for most spreadsheet stuff, but it is good for producing tracking lists (got married last year and we used Numbers for the guest list and working out the seating plans etc. but we used Excel for the financial side of it all as it is far better at actual numbers ironically!).
