![]() (By the way, Kingsoft is actually based in Hong Kong.) My apologies for the error.) A few commenters last week accused it of being a "Chinese rip-off," but last time I checked, software created in China wasn't inherently bad. (Update: Only the Pro version gives you the option of an Office 2010-style interface. Kingsoft Office looks a lot like Office 2010, and consequently I feel right at home in it. The famed freebies mostly resemble Office 2003-if not an even earlier version. They're all OK-good enough, certainly, for most users-but I'll admit I've become spoiled by Microsoft's Ribbon interface, which made its debut in Office 2007 and carried over to Office 2010. I had, however, tried all the usual freebie Microsoft Office alternatives: OpenOffice, LibreOffice, Lotus Symphony, Google Docs, and so on. Until last week, I'd never heard of Kingsoft or this product. I mention this because although the Kingsoft Professional giveaway is over, you can still get Kingsoft Office Suite Free 2012 for, well, free. Since then I've been test-driving the software on an old laptop. About a week ago I featured Kingsoft Office Suite Professional 2012 in a bonus deal.
