App #1 : Neo Office or Open Office

Yes you can purchase Microsoft office if you are working in an environment that requires you to produce many Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents that are 100 % compatible with their Windows counterpart, but if you are just a casual office user, the free Neo Office or Open Office should be a good solution for all your needs. Both free office suites include equivalent to Word, Excel and PowerPoint and include even more. The documents they produce are also compatible with Microsoft office although sometimes, there maybe a few bugs that will make documents not look totally right. I personally prefer Neo Office, because I have to work with many WordPerfect documents for my job and Neo Office open them and display properly in almost every case. If you are not sure, test both of them and you can choose later. Download Neo Office. Download Open Office.
