OpenOffice is a great alternative to MS Office, which I only still use
as its my work standard (at the moment). I like the idea of an "open"
approach to software, and not the Microsoft (and other Windows software)
approach. In all honesty, as soon as there is a way for me to ditch MS
Publisher and the legacy files in that format, and an all-in-one
replacement for Outlook, I'll be using exclusively OpenOffice.
I have found that Thunderbird with the Lightning add on does everything
that I used Outlook 97 for. Plus, it allows me to interconnect the address
book in Thunderbird with OO.o so that I can insert addresses in documents.
I am also using the Thunderbird address book as my system address book
instead of the Windows address book. I placed an icon for it in the quick
launch area of the task bar, and this works great.
