The $79 iWork '08 appears to be good deal for anyone needin an affordable office suite for the Mac. Apple has finally added a spreadsheet application. At the first glance, Numbers is an elegant no-brainer for anyone migrating from Microsoft Excel. In the past, many Mac afficionados bought Microsoft Excel because iWork lacked a spreadsheet application.

However, with the addition of Numbers and the release of Microsoft's Office for Mac 2008 delayed until January, Mac users may stick to Apple's less expensive option. We're also happy that Mac has'nt changed its life formats as Microsoft did with office 2007. We like the sparse interfaces throughtout the iWork package.

iWork also covers much more than just the basic productivily tasks offered by online tools like Google Docs & Spreadsheets or the Zoho suite, so it should be adequate for the vast majority of home and small business users. System requirements, thankfully, are gentle to users of older Macs.

Each year, Sierra Leone's diamond mining industry makes us US$250 million. Despite this, weak laws, corruption and industry dominance by big, money-hungry private companies mean that the poverty rate is sky high, with over 60% of the population earning less than a dollar a day. Miners have inadequate living conditions, little or no education, have lost control of their land and receive only a fraction of the diamonds retail value.
