The majority of the software on my Mac is either bundled with the machine, free, or costs about $35, which is less than £20 these days.

NeoOffice (based on OpenOffice.org) is good enough for the one day a year I do anything Office-like.

Actually, glancing through my Applications folder, I see that I'm wrong - it's not the majority, but all of the software on my Mac that is in one of the above categories.
