A Great Guide For OpenOffice.org 2.0
OpenOffice.org 2.0 is the best Free,open-source productivity software I know of,(think MS Office, but at no charge).If you don't have, or need MS Office,
<br />OpenOffice.org 2.0, is a great, and easy to use alternative.The book takes you step-by-step through projects in the word processing, database,presentation, and spreadsheet packages, so you can learn at your own pace.This book also includes a guide to the BEST web browser on the planet, Firefox!Once you've tried Firefox, you'll throw rocks at Internet Explorer! Interesting thought...of the millions of people that use(and love) Firefox, most of them started out using Internet Explorer:)To sum up, I highly recommend this book.
