Free Software!

Randy B. Singer All Messages By This Member #19021 Hi folks! I’ve previously mentioned my Web site listing the best free software for the Macintosh computer: Free Macintosh Software! Well, the site has proven to be really popular. So much so that I’ve drastically expanded it to make it even more useful. The site now lists 165 programs! Every single one of them is extremely useful, well written, easy to install, and easy to use. It has gotten to the point that, depending on what you usually do with your Mac, you may not need to buy any additional software for it. There are links to free versions of all the most popular types of applications on the site! Please have a look, and I’d love to hear what you think of the site! __________________________________________________ Randy B.

One question - I don’t see Apache Open Office. I’ve been using it since it was Star Office. Tried Libre Office but didn’t like UI as much as AOO. I use Pages &Keynote for new stuff but have a lot of legacy files; also AOO is available on the other operating system.

I use Pages &Keynote for new stuff but have a lot of legacy files; also AOO is available on the other operating system. I didn’t list all of the OpenOffice siblings (LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice, and NeoOffice) on my Free Software Web site, because they are all based on the same codebase. I listed LibreOffice, of the three, because it is currently the most advanced (at least in some respects) and most popular. Apache OpenOffice is the least advanced of the three. I did mention all of the OpenOffice siblings on my Macintosh Word Processor site: Macintosh Word Processors Personally, I find ALL of the OpenOffice siblings to be a huge disappointment is that they still, after all these years, don’t do a really good job rendering complex Microsoft format files. In this regard, I find Free Office to be a much superior product. __________________________________________________ Randy B.
