Re: Microsoft
I still use Libra Office the Free version and have found it very good, with no issues, get free update notifications etc.
Works well with Microsoft Word and other such programs.
Has what one needs , Writer (Word Document) Calc Spreadsheet , Impress Presentation ,Draw Drawing , Math Formula, Base Database. Most above come with nice set of various Templates , so can change the look etc. Great for Free!

Re: Microsoft
Another product is Libre - the upmarket edition of Open Office - which also does all Microsoft 365 does and is free.

Re: Microsoft
Micro soft will be increasing all there product range prices over the coming months.
This is hot gossip, Bill was overheard down at the Pub telling his mates, me and the wife are getting a divorce.
Her brief says she wants the house, the car and a few quid to live on.
I asked my brief what is a few quid, he fell silent as he said he had to concentrate as he was not sure how many Zero's are in a $ trillion.

Re: Microsoft
Bill gates and his wife are divorcing but what amazed me issue that only having founded Microsoft in 1975 on the back of its profits he has become the 4th richest person in the world, though I guess that should not surprise me given the number of computers world wide using Microsoft operating system.
