Purchasing a new version of Word would run about $150.00. But Apple offers its own word-processing program called Pages that you can have for $20.00. Trusting in the quality of all things Apple, I bought it, and congratulated myself on my thrift.

Pages has traits that are not immediately apparent, however. While it's a sturdy little word processor, its true personality is not revealed until you use the proofreader — or Proofreadress, as I now think of her. Yes, she's female all right. Seems to have been designed and programmed by the women's-studies department of the Cupertino community college.
