The other day we mentioned how a site had analyzed a lot of different software to see what slows down your computer the most. They decided to do some more tests and Symantec must have not been too happy with their Norton Internet Security 2006 result because they provided a copy of their 2007 version to test. The outcome wasn't much better.

I am writing this article using Writer, part of the slick new OpenOffice.org suite, which by the way is free and now rivals MS Office in terms of features. MS charges about $499 for its product suite if you buy the professional version. OpenOffice.org works just as well, has more or less the same abilities, and can both read and save MS formats.
