Open Office is great. It comes with most distributions of Linux now, but ofcourse it also works on Windows. Open office is always free (and open source).
As far as I am aware, Star Office used to a commerical venture by Sun Microsystems.. as in, you used to have to pay for it. I just checked out their site, and it does cost around $70.
BUT, Google is iving away free versions in their Google Pack:

Im not sure if it's exactly the same version, but in any case, it's free.
