It should work fine under Rosseta, though I haven't personally test it.

It works fine, but I find the apps to be quite dated. Hopefully an iWork and iLife update will follow.

AppleWorks may be dated, but I don't like Pages a heck of a lot either. I still keep a copy of the former on my hard drive.

Works as long as it ain't the OS 9 version

Yeah I still have AppleWorks on my Macbook and it runs just fine under Rosetta, reasonable fast.
