OpenOffice.org v2.3.1 RC 1

I've been using OpenOffice for a few years now and find it to be complete, efficient and a great alternative to MS Office. It is complete with dictionary (spell check) and thesaurus. The suite imports/exports in MS formats as well. There is a very well written user guide in PDF format available on the OpenOffice web site. You can't beat the price either!

OpenOffice.org v2.3.0 RC3

I've used the word processor in this package and the database programs. Both compare very well with M$'s versions. I've typed up numerous school papers, research papers and essays, couldn't tell the difference between Word and Open Office. But, my favorite feature of this bundle is the export directly to PDF feature. Great for writing tutorials and research papers that you plan on publishing. Excellent program, and you can't beat the price ;)!

OpenOffice contains a great software bundle that certainly gives Microsoft Office a run for it's money (literally)...

All the packages are there (word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, database, Drawing, Web Editing etc.) and all work well with M$ Office files as well as their own xml formats...

Their are Plenty of features available for newbies and professionals alike, as well as the usual proofing tools like spell checking, hyphenation and thesaurus... The only thing I couldnt find was a grammar-checker, but then again, I dont really use it myself...
