An alternative to MS Office

NeoOffice/J 1.1 saved my day today! -- When I tried to open with my MS PowerPoint 2004 a file received from a Windows user, all I get is black rectangle. NeoOffice/J, an OS X native port of the OpenOffice.org office suite, opened the file without any problem, with everything in the layout intact!

Pros: Free! Available in many languages including traditional and simplified Chinese, complete with help files.
Cons: the interface is still very PC-like.
