You may have heard of Sun Microsystems' StarOffice which is being offered as a viable and cheaper alternative to Microsoft Office. Openoffice.org is the open source (or, free indefinitely) cousin of StarOffice. Staroffice used to be free as in you can freely download and install in as many computers as you like but Sun Microsystems has recently decided to charge for Staroffice. However, please do not fret as Openoffice.org will always be free and we are going to show you in this article how and why Openoffice.org instead of MS Office and StarOffice is for you.

I actually use it home, instead of M$ Office XP, and the only thing I miss is a better spellC.
The drawer _can_ save to .jpg, but Gimp and PhotoShop is for images and should not be compared to draw. Also its slower than office most of the times, (starting up, that is) but office loads some stuff in mem. when starting windows, and the quick-start helps.
