Thanks for that suggestion of Softmaker. I've been trapped using Windows just because of MS Office. I just tried using their "freeoffice" and I was able to stay in Ubuntu while editing Word and Powerpoint. Libre Office had always messed up both my Word and PPT files - but freeoffice seems to work (well, so far at least.)

As a word of caution: I am super happy with Softmaker since many years. But recently I had to work on an investment pitch presentation with a buddy who uses word. The ppt file, made by Softmaker, that I sent him did not look very good when opened with Powerpoint. (I send the file to their very good support service, they are always improving) I guess if you are interested you start with the previous version, which is free: http://www.freeoffice.com/en/ http://www.freeoffice.com/en/
