I keep on hearing many success stories of Windows to Linux migration . I feel some major credit should go to OpenOffice for making these migrations successful (atleast for non-technical users) .
Any Office package mainly consists of a Word processor, a Spreadsheet software and most probably a Presentation software. There are many packages available in Linux which can be called as an Office package. I personally feel OpenOffice is the best one can get in the Linux world, although there are many who hate OpenOffice for being bloated and terribly slow. I wouldn’t oppose this argument coz these are true to a certain extent but its advantages outweigh its disadvantages.
The official site is at http://www.openoffice.org
At last what matters is personal taste…and the best of the lot can only be found by experimenting.
