Apple discontinues AppleWorks

Without grand publicity, Apple has decided to stop all development on 
AppleWorks, its formerly iconic productivity suite. The information was 
quietly passed on to resellers last week, who were told that the 
software had reached an "End of Life" stage. Sales have been officially 
stopped, and trying to visit the AppleWorks website redirects visitors 
to the page for the recently-launched iWork '08. iWork handles many of 
the same tasks as AppleWorks (spreadsheets, presentations et al.), while 
the latter has not been updated for some time.


iWork needs a database to satisfy my needs; or maybe I will half to 
learn how to use FileMaker Pro.
