No, but there is another office suite that is "Free" (which is better than just "free") and it's called OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org). And of course it's compatible with MS Office. -- Amedee Van Gasse using XanaNews 1.16.5.2 If it has an "X" in the name, it must be Linux? Please don't thank me in advance. Thank me afterwards if it works or hit me in the face if it doesn't. ;-) Well, yeah, it's compatible, and worth having, but ... since it's 78Meg or more, be prepared to spend some time if you're on a dialup. It's not EXACTLY the same as Word though; there ARE differences, and I know at least one person was having trouble using it for a class because of those diffs. So, how "good" openoffice is depends on what you're going to use it for. Pop I should have added: YMMV -- Amedee Van Gasse using XanaNews 1.16.5.2 If it has an "X" in the name, it must be Linux? |
