StarOffice is mentioned on the "Son of Spy" freeware website...under the list he calls Pricelessware considered to be the 'best' freeware in various categories. The newest version is even bigger than Mark says, but there are ways to get it..(using a download manager that can pick up where it left off if it doesn't finish.... is one way.)More info if you want..

StarOffice is a complete suite of stuff...here is one quote about it...

"The STAROFFICE CALC application offers more functions than a standard spreadsheet program, enabling you to analyze figures, create lists, and handle Euro conversions with ease and accuracy. A scenario manager helps analyze and filter your data according to various factors, and several advanced layout functions simplify the task of presenting your data. For the finishing touch, create impressive 3-D charts with only a few mouse clicks. In the 5.2 release, you'll find major improvements that make the STAROFFICE CALC application even easier to use, with improved import and export filters for Microsoft Excel 97/2000, and a number of new templates and sample files that give you results you can rely on. When it comes to turning data into information, you can count on STAROFFICE CALC software to get the job done. "
