Personally, it's coming at a time when office has lost it's advantage for macs. The improved native ical, addressbook, mail apps and their interactivity with other programs knock out entourage.
Apple's Pages, Numbers and Keynote apps in iwork are a bit awkward to use opening some MS originated content, but they do most of it very well, and have some great advantages for most people creating content from scratch. This will only be for those who need tighter compatibility with win generated documents.

For everyone who has held out this long thinking about the format war, it's time to look at value and return and vote with your wallet rather than the paid off news media. If you have an HD set, there is no reason to deprive yourself of quality movie watching. The toshibas below and just above the $150 mark offer outstanding DVD upsampling. You get a batch of HD movies thrown in for a total MUCH less than the movies retail cost alone. What is there to think about!? OK, I'm not going crazy buying new titles yet either, but the studios deserve that treatment after making such a mess of this situation. If all the studios offered both formats now, blu-ray would disappear faster than a rat down its own hole. HD-DVD: better, cheaper, smarter. Just do it.
