      @Smutchings @zkahn94 The alternatives (e.g. iWork) are far, far worse (for teams).

      @gvssr @zkahn94 iWork is getting better. The newer versions make it usable for collaboration, and they'll get better

      @Smutchings @zkahn94 Sure, but it’s not there, by far. I’m not going to “hate” Google for making my life better.

          @gvssr @aral I can't wait to see what Aral has in store with indie. His Apple-esque focus on design has me intrigued.

          @smutchings @aral @gvssr Its complete freedom is what intrigues me more than its visual design :)

          @gKrishnaKS @aral @gvssr complete freedom is already out there. It'll be the design which sets this apart.

          @Smutchings @aral @gvssr Complete freedom is not* out there for mobile devices. Supporting any product because it looks good - is bad, IMO

          @gKrishnaKS We’re not talking about how it looks but how it works. How it looks is just one factor in how it works. +@Smutchings @gvssr
