Open office and Word almost seem identical at first. The first differences one will notice will be that word is more aesthetically appealing. Open office has almost all the functionality of Word and more. Since it is open source, one can help develop the program. It is simply a more affordable option.

What is the difference between Word and Word Perfect?

Microsoft Word is more user-friendly if you are looking for a basic writing program. When using Microsoft Word, your computer will need a slightly bigger larger megahertz processor than if you were using WordPerfect. WordPerfect costs between $100 -$200 more than Microsoft Word and Microsoft Word also has a free download. If you are really techy, you might like WordPerfect much better than Microsoft Word because of its similarity to "traditional" word processing systems.
