If you read this at all, you've read what a fan I am of Google and anything free, especially quality free items.
Two things come to mind: Zoho and Openoffice. Both are good quality items that are free. Zoho is a web-based office package that has email, calendar, documents, presentations, etc. Openoffice is a downloadable Microsoft Office compatible program. With it, one is able to have an office suite that is MS-like yet free.
It saddens me to hear "sales" people recommend the extra few hundred bucks for office packages such as MS. People are looking for answers and may forget they're in a store where people are paid to sell things. This could be why I struggle with the concept of sales.
My suggestion is researching what you are after online. Even then, I believe one is far better off to make a sound decision financially. One may review customer reviews via Amazon and compare prices and items. When reading the reviews, however, be mindful to peruse both good, bad, and ugly versions of the customer reviews.
Sometimes it's hard for me not to buy on impulse; however, when I take the time to shop using these suggestions, the experience is usually better overall, and I end up being more satisfied in general.
Peace
