Who says your productivity software has to cost $400 and have the Microsoft logo on the box? Software602's PC Suite features a highly capable word processor, spreadsheet, and photo editor/organizer--and it won't cost you a dime if you're a home user. (Commercial customers pay $60, and all users must register the software within 30 days to unlock all the features.) Can it compete feature for feature with Word and Excel? No, but it has the essential tools you use every day. You can even get help, if you're willing to pay for it: E-mail support costs $50 for one year; phone support is $60 per incident.
However, many readers have written in insisting that I at least mention OpenOffice.org, a totally free, multiplatform productivity suite. It is available for numerous operating systems and supports many common file formats, as well as languages. Its files are interchangeable with those of Microsoft Office applications.
