IBM Lotus Symphony

Microsoft Office has long had as big a monopoly on office apps as Windows has had on the desktop. Competitors like Corel's WordPerfect suite have long been virtually ignored as expensive also-rans, while free tools like OpenOffice.org have remained exclusive to the realm of hackers and open source geeks. Now a new competitor is entering the fray: IBM, which has long sold an even-more-ignored-than-Corel suite called SmartSuite will be offering its latest suite, Lotus Symphony, for free.

Grab it here...

Mind - It's still in beta 1 stage...

YEah! It was since dos era... But this is a new n cool version... I installed it... Seems like far better than Open Office which was the so called best free alternative to MS office.... BTW, lolz, this is free, right... Free means that neither u've got to pay money nor u hv to do the sin of using illigal s/w... I only use Windows n Matlab as illegal pirated s/ws right nw, as the rest are all freewares... I'll most probably get a legitimate windows copy soon when I get a new lap...
