Hello Steve, I'm about to have a firestorm land on my head for saying this, but Pages works just fine for me, except for tracking changes, which I never have to do anyway.
To use Pages efficiently, you need a thorough knowledge of VoiceOver. Make sure that the mouse cursor is set to ignore the other cursors or you'll have stability problems. It's necessary to be familiar with Hotspots so that you can keep track of styles. Pages is for word processing, not for reading for pleasure. TextEdit works much better for that. I can't compare Pages to Word on a PC because I've never used a PC.
