My name is Martin Olsson and I am a User. That sounds kind of like an introduction at a 12-step program, doesn't it?

Well I'm trying to kick a Microsoft habit. Two or three years ago I bought a Mac, and since then I've been clean. I still have a pirated copy of Office installed because I have to, but I find myself feeling less and less comfortable around the behemoth.

The best and most versatile substitute for Office so far is TextMate. I still have a shot of Keynote every now and then, and for a tranquil writing session I sometimes switch to WriteRoom, but TextMate is growing on me, and I am growing as a result.
