Open Office 2.0 Beta
I've been using Open Office at home for a while instead of Word, and I have to say, it feels pretty good. Cheap thrill? Probably, but I don't think I've had to sacrifice anything to get it. Recently I grabbed the Open Office 2.0 Beta and it's become apparent that, not only am I not sacrificing anything, but I'm gaining quite a bit, inlcuding: additional format compatiblity, XForms support, more standardized XML support (using OASIS OpenDocument), and a fancy new interface. There are dozens of new and improved features that I haven't even had the time to explore, but this Beta build has been so stable that I'm sure I'll have time to find them.
I can't stress this enough: If you don't absolutely have to have the MS brand office suite (or don't want to pay for it), grab yourself a free copy of Open Office

Thanks Jay! I have been too much of a cheapskate to buy office and just forgo doing my homework assignments at work... Now I can do them at home in the sanctity of my own environment..and not pay one red cent!! BTW I am loving the firefox browser. Just the ease of use with password remembering is worth it. I think I might even pay for that.
