MacKeeper's list ought to keep you busy for awhile. Your question has been asked many times. Next time please use the forum search function.

Great post MacKeeper!!!!!

All for yours Mac

A couple of corrections of MacKeeperUser's list:

Word processors:

Nisus Writer Pro (excellent, powerful program, and handles many languages)

Since the release of OpenOffice 3.0, it does not require X11. And Office 3.3 beta is the best so far of any release.
