Fred,
I have been using Open Office for several years on my netbook computer
(OO3 and OO4). I am pleased with the word processor, spreadsheet, and
presentation (Powerpoint equivalent) aspects of the office suit. I often
convert the files to MS equivalents so that they will open on my office
computer. You can save documents in OO format or a number of other formats
as well.
I have not used the OO database, however, it seems to have most, if not
all, of the functionality of MS Access. For the price (free) I would
recommend folks to try it and it might be a nice cost alternative to
Microsoft Office.
