Instead of Microsoft Office, you can use Open Office (SUN):
it is free, open-source, very well constructed and when you know how to use MS Office you will find it very easy to migrate to Open Office.

Open Office: webpage (også på Dansk), tutorials.

To open some of the slides you need a ZIP program. For Windows, try 7-zip (free): here.

Latex: download Miktex from here
