The OpenOffice.org office Suite is at least as good as, and faster and sleeker than any Microsoft product. It even opens older Word documents that current versions of Word won't (they really got trashed for that mess-up). The applications are are Writer - word processor, Calc - a spreadsheet, Base - a database, Draw - a graphics program, Impress - a presentation application to create and Math - mathematical equation editor. There are thousands of tutorials and hundreds of sites and communities to train and communicate with other users of these apps. You can also register with the www.openoffice.org site to submit bugs, enhancement requests and contribute to projects. Cost for these programs and training? Absolutely free. Really. If you have a slow or dial-up connection you can ask someone to with a high-speed connection download it to a cd for you and install it on your computer. You may also visit the "cd rom" page for an extensive list of distributors who will send you a cd for a minimal donation-usually shipping-or some for free. It's a new day, enjoy the view.
