I rarely use Microsoft Office, although I do have Office 2004 on my OS X 10.4 Tiger, 10.5 Leopard, and 10.6 Snow Leopard Macs. Problem is, I’m using Mavericks on my MacBook, so Office 2004 is not an option – nor do I want to spend the money to buy a newer version.

LibreOffice is a competent replacement for Microsoft Office, AppleWorks, and other office suites.
