I Installed OpenOffice.org

I have to say, I am quite impressed…quite impressed indeed.
I really didn’t think the programs would be this good. When I was writing my previous post about open source applications, I kind of thought the applications would be clunky or amateur looking. They aren’t at all. So far, I have used OpenOffice.org Calc for some records that I have. I use that because it can be password protected.
I opened my old Excel document in Calc and then saved it in the open source format. Now, Excel can’t open it, but Calc can. If I ever need it to be opened in Excel again, all I have to do is to save it in Excel format. It’s pretty easy.
I opened (but haven’t used) Writer and Impress. They look very much like Word and PowerPoint. I think I am on to something here.
