<div><br></div>OK geek in me coming out....<br><br>Open office is a free open
source software component that is JUST LIKE WINDOWS!! you can get it
free online, just google open office. They have writers, spreadsheets,
power points etc, all that JUST LIKE WINDOWS!! catch? ITS FREE!! and not only
that but...TOTALLY COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS.<br><br>Devin, i'm surprised that

<div>Hi Devin,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Would you please give me some information re. Open Office? I am not
familiar with it and not sure how to obtain it, much less use it. As I
said earlier, everything that I use at home and at work is in microsoft, so I
would really not like to run into any snags (can we say Computer -Phobe?)
. Let me know the best time to reach you and a good number to call you
at and I will do that. Sometimes it's much easier than e-mail.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you so much,</div>
<div>Jalali, who just knows that it'll go BOOM!!</div>
