Polaris Office, but not sure if it is free
I'm pretty sure that was an attempt to start a war, but no one took the bait.
Open Office has come a long way performance wise since the early versions. I have one caution for those who think it's free; It's really not. The Open Software Movement relies on volunteers and donations to make quality software available to the masses for little or no money. The price you pay comes in the form of inconvenience if you have an issue, and backwards compatibility across several releases. Bugs may not be fixed in a timely manner (timely being relative, but it won't be tomorrow), and your only means of support may be some internet forum for users where you may or may not get an answer in time to complete your project today.
Unlike RV forums, technical forums tend to be less tolerant of... let's say... idiots. Posting a question without first checking the FAQs (pretty common here) will get you flamed. Even more to prevent you from solving an immediate problem.
