www.openoffice.org runs on all versions of Windows, Mac and Linux and is
free.  It handles graphics in multipage documents better than MS
Office.  It can read and write many formats including its own Open
format as well as all version of MS Office except the newest.  Few
business users save in that new Office format because it is NOT
compatible with other versions of MS Office.

You can download and try is for free and it does NOT have any of that
stupid copy protection.  And it is more secure.  And you never have to
pay for all future upgrades.

I dont like free stuff,  first of all , I trust microsoft product  110 %.

I bet you I try to dowload that, I will get free threat add in  too.

too Microsoft team have many year experience doing aplicattion software.
it take a lot effort in programming , planning,  testing , running  almost
perfect that all their user  in the world can use their product.

if you dont know , life software never ends, continue monitoring , for
future unwelcome threat , that people like to do.

im super happy with office 2007  and  vista .

keep the good job, Microsoft team.

There is nothing dodgy about open office! It is a good program.

If you have NOT used it, shut your mouth!!!!

Open office is very good considering it is free!  Microsoft makes good
stuff, or I should say makes stuff better.  They have never developed
anything from the ground up, they buy software from other companies and
make it better, sometimes.  Linux and Open office will make you see
there are alternatives to Microsoft.

While I would like to agree with you I do feel there are exceptions.  MS
Access is without a doubt the best desktop DB application software out
there today.

Even MS-DOS was bought by Microsoft from Seattle Computer Products:

On average, we see some 4500 new documents per day across clients
networks that are in the new Office 2007 format, but it's not much of an
issue since the ones not running Office 2007 already have the patch
installed to allow them to use those documents.
