    Open office is great. I use it regularly. Just remember to save the file as .doc if you want to open it in microsoft word on a different computer.

    Another recommendation for OpenOffice. Don't think it's explicitly necessary to save as .doc any more -- Office 2007+ can work with Open Document file formats quite well now.
