Open office.<BR>
<BR>
I have written 2 books in openoffice.org and it works great for that.<BR>
I don't care much for the collaboration tools because they do not give you or your collaborators clear thoughts. <BR>
Someday when I have lots more time, I want to learn TeX, but it has always looked like learning another markup language (so far). <BR>
<BR>
I have heard some rave reviews for the newest M$ Office, but I have not heard anything that suggests it will be useful in my particular writing specialty.<BR>

I am obligated to say "Google Docs" at this point.
Google Docs.
That's all.
