Had a friend over the other day while I was working on a single page in MS Word. Looking over my shoulder she just about gasped when she saw the screen. "Good Grief!! How old is that?" she asked, commenting on the program. Heck if I knew, but because it was clear she was intimating the Word version I had was a bit old and might use an update, I went looking for its version or date. After a brief nosing round it turned out to be a version that came out in 2002. 16 years ago!!! Okay. so I'm somewhat slow to change. After finishing my project I went looking for an update. WOW! what a difference the new Word is. Only problem was that Microsoft wanted $$$ for it. Then she suggested LibreOffice, a free and open-source office suite that has six components including a word processor, which looks every bit as good as the latest Word.
My question: anyone here familiar with the program, and what is your opinion of it?
Thanks.
