IBM Lotus Symphony v. 1.0 released
They're out of beta...
This is a free office suite that, while not as feature-rich as Open/Star Office, is still more than most home users will ever need. It will save in MS Office 2003 (and previous) formats. It is supported on XP and Vista, and a couple of different flavors of Linux. Direct download link...

Hahahaha! I remember Lotus Symphony... they gave it away free with just about every HP and IBM business machine ever sold, and STILL no one used it. You know how some things are so bad they can't even give them away? Hopefully they've improved this siginificantly in the last 10 years since it was last shipped.

It is not terrible, but it isn't as good as OOo. I understand it is based on the OOo code.
