Apple announced its iWork ‘05 productivity software suite as part of a cavalcade of products putting it on a collision course with Microsoft and its Office suite.
Apple chief Steve Jobs announced iWork ‘05 Tuesday at the Macworld trade show. The $79 package includes Pages, a new word processing program developed by Apple, and an updated version of Keynote, a slideshow application Apple introduced two years ago. The company also introduced the $499 Mac mini, new flash-memory-based iPods and other releases.
The software will be available in the United States on Jan. 22 and worldwide on Jan. 29.
The Mac maker’s current AppleWorks productivity package has achieved only modest market share, mostly in educational settings, and the company’s FileMaker database software has never posed a significant threat to Microsoft’s similar Access.
