Hi Karl,
I'll look into OpenOffice once more before purchasing Office. Thank you,
again for your suggestion.

there
: any reason I shouldn't be buying this package?
well you CAN save all the money you would spend on it, spent a little time
downloading OpenOffice as recommeded and at least try it. It is 100%
compatible with Microsoft office and MS office is 100% compatible with the
former. I don't think you'll find the MS version can do anything more for
you than openoffice does other than deprive you of cash ;)
Many who have used it prefer the smaller size and speed.
