Brothers and Sisters,
I've been using lower versions of Open Office now for about 2 years, and it's great. I had been waiting for the new release of 2.0 before changing again, but they seemed to jump to 2.01 pretty quickly.
COMPLETELY FREE!! - NO STRINGS ATTACHED!! I know that people have a hard time believing that completely free software is outstanding, or they think that it's just a gimmick to give you a crippled product and sell the real product.
Open Office is the real product, completely free, no strings attached, and it is EXCELLENT!Open Office is almost totally compatible with Microsoft Office. I haven't found anything that isn't compatible, but Open Office does not claim 100% compatibility. I might get the numbers off a little bit, but here goes anyway: I've used 1.04, 1.11, 1.97, and now 2.01. It works as advertised and is a first class Office Suite. In fact, it is my opinion that Open Office is better than Microsoft Office. There are now entire governments switching to the new Open Office.
YES, it is that GOOD! I must add that the documentation is also excellent.If you want to do word processing, spreadsheet, database, presentation, and more that is compatible with Microsoft Office, download your FREE COPY from the below address:

Romans 6:10-14 NASB For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
