software in general
If you are looking for software in general, I suggest my software list. it is categorized.
It handles everything from software engineering to cad to paint to web design to Office Suites.
Office Suites
If you want OpenOffice.org Office Suite, I have an extensive software collection package that I offer with OpenOffice.org (free) with a unified installer. A mac cd ISO, dvd ISO and several windows ISOs are available (depending on which kind of Microsoft office compatibility you need).There is a particularly spectacular (but 500MB-sized-download) IBM Lotus Symphony that has excellent Microsoft Office 2003 compatibility with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and it also has compatibility with OpenOffice.org.
Thunderbird Inbox broken? at 2GB?
I wrote a tool to fix this problem. see here for the thunderbird inbox splitter. allows you to break the inbox up into multiple files, which staves off the problem.There is a particularly spectacular (but 500MB-sized-download) IBM Lotus Symphony that has excellent Microsoft Office 2003 compatibility with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and it also has compatibility with OpenOffice.org.
