In an attempt to reduce my future risk, I'm looking at Firefox/Thunderbird for my Browsing/Email and Openoffice for my Word/Excel needs - (I don't use Access or Powerpoint much anyways) -

Anyone have any problems with these? - I do use a fairly complex Excel document to track my losses/wins in poker, so I need it to convert easily -

I use Firefox/TB and OO in an office environment (software development & support), so it's robust enough for that. I use the word processing and spreadsheet functions of OO pretty much on a daily basis, when the rest of the company uses MS Office. Never had a compatibility problem. I have also used OO to work with Powerpoint presentations. One of the things I love about OO is the option to export your document directly to PDF. Very nice.

I wouldn't give it a second thought.
