Check it out: openoffice.org
This is great since I don't have MSOffice on one of my computers. I'll try it out and see how it is.

When I reformatted my computer I decided to take a more open source path and chose 7-Zip over WinRAR/WinZIP, OpenOffice over Microsoft Office, Foxit Reader over Adobe Reader, and Songbird over iTunes. :] | |

Fucked up a lot of Word documents I had. I guess it would be ok if you didn't already many documents and excel spreadsheets and whatnot. | |

I don't like how people try to go open-source just for the sake of going open-source (not TC). If you don't have Office and you don't want to spend the cash, okay, but otherwise, what the fuck?
Microsoft really has more solid products than people give them credit for.
