The good: New dictionary and autobackup/recovery features; viewer for PowerPoint presentations; task-oriented interface is a breeze to navigate.
The bad: Word processing, spreadsheet, and database modules are too wimpy for many business-related projects.
The bottom line: Works 8.0 is ideal for technophobes and Luddites who need an extremely simple interface for their home-computing chores.
