I don't know which one you are referring to but I'm using OpenOffice and it does everything OfficeXP can and it's free.

OpenOffice

OpenOffice

I opened up an MS word document that had a numbered list with open office and it didn't display it properly. It's far from perfect but it's free.

use the free powerpoint viewer from microsoft to view ppt files since you don't need to edit them.
