-Long live AppleWorks. The long time office suite has finally been put out to pasture. As Macworld [notes][1] the URL for Appleworks now redirects to Apple's new iWork suite and a search for AppleWorks returns iWork as the top hit.
-
-Of course the demise of Appleworks shouldn't come as much of a surprise. The office application suite never saw a universal binary update, which should have alerted users to its "abandonware" state. 
-
-AppleWorks has been around some 23 years, beginning life as ClarisWorks before being taken over by Apple and renamed AppleWorks. FileMaker Pro, the database app also originally developed by Claris appears to still be under development at Apple.
-
-Given that iWork is already a couple of years old, it seem safe to assume that Apple has been wanting to ditch AppleWorks for some time. Arguably the missing sauce in iWorks was a spreadsheet application, but with [Numbers now a part of the iWork suite][2], AppleWorks lost its one secure foothold over iWork.
-
-Although iWork is faster and more robust than AppleWorks, there doesn't appear to be any upgrade discounts on iWork for existing AppleWorks customers, which is too bad.
