There are other (paid-for) office alternatives if you don't want to use MS Office or Libre Office. Corel's Wordperfect suite is one (http://www.corel.com http://www.corel.com). Or the very cheap Ability Office (http://www.ability.com http://www.ability.com) which brazenly copies the MS Office interface as closely as possible. The German software company Ashampoo (http://www.ashampoo.com http://www.ashampoo.com) has a cheap Office Suite too (in English, as well as other languages). So if you're looking for an MS Office alternative, it's not a simply a case of Office vs the free or open-source alternatives. There are other paid-for options too, some of which are very cheap.
