Don't be fooled by illegal copies of Microsoft Office selling for 49$
- 69$. These are not licensed copies and could end up costing you more
than $100,000 in copyright fines or willful infringement. Open Office
is a fully licensed alternative software to Microsoft Office. Get the
peace of mind of purchasing a licensed Office Suite for a quarter of
the price.
Illegal copies can range from simply giving you access to P2P file
sharing applications, copying original CD's onto a CD-R, or allowing
you to download an image file of a copied CD. These are all highly
illegal, and Microsoft is known for it's strict standards in combating
copyright infringers.

Or, you could save $47 and download OpenOffice for free at

http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/index.html

And, you could get a better, MacOS native version, here:

http://download.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php

Neither of which are a complete replacement for Microsoft Office, I'm
sorry to say. There are things I can do with Word which I can't do in
OpenOffice. Like remove 2 consecutive blank lines from a Word document.

Though there are also things which OpenOffice can do which Microsoft
can't. OpenOffice, or, at least, the NeoOffice port has a very useful
database.

Cheers,

Dave

Though NeoOffice's RegExp ^$ will find all blank paragraphs, which is
similar.

Yup - they each have strengths and weaknesses.
