UPDATE: And, oh yeah, why don’t Apple offer a demo for download? From the iWork web site:
A 30-day iWork ???06 Trial will be available on new hardware, in retail boxes of Mac OS X and iLife ‘06. After 30 days, the Trial becomes an iWork ???06 player.

So, I’m new to this whole Mac/OSX thing…
Where should I be looking for the best support, guidance, software release info, etc.?
I’ve found the ones listed below, which seem okay, but I haven’t really had time to look over them thoroughly. I know there have to be hidden gems out there somewhere.
