Hello,
worthwhile for many people, the Not purchase from Microsoft Office. On the one hand, the suite from Redmond is quite expensive, the other, offers many features that you do not usually necessary. There are some free offers, as well as some cheaper solutions.
addiction is only a good word processor, AbiWord is worth a look. The open source program offers all the important features of a word processor, for example, there is a spell checker. AbiWord opens MS Office documents up to version 2003, RTF, and others.
Do I need a complete office suite ideal for Windows users, OpenOffice.org. In version 2.3, the open source suite features all the needed office life. On board are writing and Presentation program, a spreadsheet and a drawing program for vector graphics. There is also a version for Mac OS X but this is advance the X server. New is a beta, but still has problems of integration. For example, does the opening of documents from the browsers yet, otherwise you can work with the suite actually quite good. An alternative is NeoOffice for Mac users, this suite based on OpenOffice, and uses the Cocoa interface of Mac OS X. You can reduce the installation of the x - save server. NeoOffice offers the same features such as OpenOffice. Unfortunately, there is no automatic update, so that you must import the updates themselves. After all, it is about new releases informed so that you do not always think needs to look. Finally it can be said that there are alternatives to Microsoft's Office package is.
