The way to actually save money, if that's the goal, is to try not to want full-fledged word processors and office suites. For most internal communication, plain text or something like RTF at most is more than sufficient. Trying to replace Word and Office with cheaper or open is doomed, because Office is far ahead of everything else, and everything else will be judged for not being Office. Open source's best contribution could be a standardized simple text format.
