cheap MSOFFICE alternative
i was talking earlier with an old friend that he's manager in a company and he told me they use software602 suite in many systems as an alternative of msoffice. He's crazy anti-microsoft guy....probably that's why.
anyway,here's the link. + http://www.software602.com/products/pcs/business.html If you try to keep low cost regarding software application purchases for you or your company, it can benefit you since its only $60 Fully compatible with office and almost similar function,same menus etc |

Star Office is obselete.
OpenOffice is based on the StarOffice code and is updated regularily. For most users, it does everything you need MS Office for. Available for Windows, Mac, Linux/FreeBSD, etc. http://openoffice.org Costs a lot less than $60 too   |

I used it for a while, but graphical email gets on my nerves. Both the email client and the calendar work pretty well though. Not sure about the compatibility with existing outlook data though. |

yeah, my bad, i meant evolution. actually, at the moment i just downloaded mozilla thunderbird and it's importing my mail from outlook. let's see if it does a decent job. as long as it will import my shit and i can back it up decent enough, i'm good.
