Microsoft Office for Mac v.X Standard Edition
Strengths: Nice job (finally) by Microsoft for the MacOSX systems. Good programs and they're stable, too.
Weakness: Wish it didn't have to cost so much. Would be interesting if they got away from silo-ing their applications and made them into one.
I think these programs are better than previous Mac versions and definitely stronger than their PC conterparts. I use them religiously on my PowerBook G4. I've not had one glitch or crash with these programs. I also installed the patch before using them, so that probably helped some. Great suite of apps and they work flawlessly on OS X.
