the rent economy - most destructive scam from corporate america. and it's not just renting houses..

15. At work, we use the MS suite....

..... and, although I don't know the cost to the organization, I can say it greatly improves my productivity over what I could achieve, in that environment, with Open Office Libre. But for use outside of work, the open suite is not just adequate or make do, it is exactly what I actually need and the price is right.

So I am not paying, neither upfront nor monthly, for MS Office, NOPE.

Same with Photoshop. I use GIMP. I've used Photoshop both at work and at home. It's absolutely the tops. If I was a real pro I might go for it, but GIMP is very, very good and more than I actually need. And, again, the price is right.
