Well first of all I would like to say thank you for making that freeware post a sticky, I am sure I will use that again .

I Downloaded the Open Office programs and they seem to be a really nice ( free! ) alternative to MS Office. Just a few questions about it though, if you guys would not mind.

1. If anyone usese this are there any big differences between the two (MS Office and Open Office) I am very familiar with MS Office so I'll probably know what you're talkin about

2. Do these files convert to Word/PowerPoint/Excel well? I will have to transfer these to a computer upstairs to print, since "my baby" doesn't have a printer yet

3. Just making sure... This definitely comes with no bundled adware/spyware right? Nothing cant ever be 100% free right?

Oops! Major EDIT: I completely forgot to say, if all works well this will have saved me $150~... Since I was thinkin' of forkin over the money for MS Office for myself, for X-mas this year.

Thanks for takin' some time to read my post.
