A followup to yesterday's post:
NeoOffice is a FREE, fully-featured set of office applications (including word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, and drawing programs) for Mac OS X. Based on the
OpenOffice.org office suite (free set of office applications for IBM Clone PCs), NeoOffice has integrated dozens of native Mac features and can import, edit, and exchange files with other popular office programs such as Microsoft Office. Released as free, open source software under the GNU General Public License (GPL), NeoOffice is fully functional and stable enough for everyday use. The software is actively developed, so improvements and small updates are made available on a regular basis.

Dell has chosen
Ubuntu to be the version for Dell's Linux-loaded laptops and desktops. The announcement comes after weeks of speculation regarding which distribution Dell would choose after the company confirmed plans to begin selling pre-loaded Linux machines. Ubuntu is a free Linux-based operating system for IBM Clone PCs. It contains the Firefox web browser, presentation, document and spreadsheet software (OpenOffice), instant messaging, and email program, and more. And since Ubuntu is an operating system, that means you can access your other applications, including Microsoft products, as well. Part of the Ubuntu promise is that it "will always be free of charge, including enterprise releases and security updates." Ubuntu comes with full commercial support from Canonical and hundreds of companies around the world. Ubuntu CDs contain only free software applications.
