Best Free Microsoft Word alternative – OpenOffice 3.0 Final
If you don’t want to pay high price for Microsoft Office Suite and looking for an Office Suite with all features, OpenOffice 3.0 is for you. OpenOffice.org is a free, Open Source alternative to MS Office with a Word compatible word processor, a complete Excel compatible spread sheet program and a Power Point like presentation software and drawing program and also allows to save to PDF file. Free, alternative office suite OpenOffice.org’s latest version 3.0 is now available for download.
The best news about OpenOffice 3.0, is that it can read Microsoft Office 2007 Open XML files (.docx, .xlsx etc). Even earlier versions of MS Office can’t read these new formats without Microsoft file convertor. Save them in ODF format, and save yourself a lot of future headaches!
Open Office is a great free alternative, but nothing beats the Microsoft Office Suite

Very interesting, but I will still stick with Microsoft Word. It’s so cool.
