Those who are on a tight budget and cannot afford Microsoft's "competitively-priced" products can always hook up with free software from OpenOffice or use free online alternatives. Zoho Sheet is currently running a beta version on their website and it ain't half bad, considering the fact that you can create and publish charts as well as import and export Excel stylesheets. Zoho Writer is the common word processor and allows you to open several documents simultaneously. You can even export the completed documents to PDF, DOC, or HTML files. Best of all is, you don't have to deal with any installation hiccups.
