101. WordPerfect still rocks...
I'm using WP 10 and will probably upgrade to 12 soon.

It does a few things better than Word for me, and still has "reveal codes." Lemme tell you how handy that is when you're in the middle of a complex document with graphics, tables, columns, dropcaps...

Admittedly, nobody else can read a .wps file, but I can easily make just about any Word variant file you want, or go straight to PDF without any bullshit. And the html pages it creates don't have half the spaghetti code or crap Word pages have.

And Bill Gates doesn't get a nickel out of it.

Corel tells me they're doing Linux again, so that means it might even work on a Mac like Open Office does, albeit with a little work.
