If your wanting to break free from the clutches of Micro$oft for good, a good site is this.
The table of equivalents / replacements / analogs of Windows software in Linux. (Official site of the table)
it lists some alternatives to many frequently used windows applications. Usualy the package manager of your distro will contain most of these.
