While many have heard of Microsoft Office, there exists a free (yes, free, as in, you don't need to pay to use it) office suite known as OpenOffice.org. This is open source software, which started out as StarOffice. Similiar to MS Office, OOo (as OpenOffice.org is known in short) has a word processor, spreadsheet and presentation software, as well as database software, mathematics formula creator and vector drawing tool. OOo offers compatibility with MS Office (it is able to open and save files using MS Office formats) and additional features not found in MS Office. Best of all, it is free!
To get OOo, just click on the OOo button below.

Thanks for supporting OpenOffice.org and making it known to a wider audience.
If you recommend Openoffice.org to non computer geeks, also send them to Plan-B for OpenOffice.org. It is OpenOffice.org support for non technical users with many screencasts and smart search.
