I never use the ribbon when using MS Word on the Mac. You cannot use keyboard  
shortcuts/accelerator keys, and it's very laborious to access the ribbon using 
VoiceOver. Much prefer accessing features through the menu bar when using Word 
on the Mac.
Using word on a Mac is definitely different than on windows, but once you get 
the hang of it, it's very usable.

Brad and Jonathan,
  Looks good on the Mac. Never liked the ribbon which is probably why I have 
not done more with Word on Windows. I see a summer time project coming up. :) 
Thank you both.
