Is there any open source alternative to Google Docs?

Question

I'm looking for an Open Source alternative to Google Docs. Reason I want it is because I want to host it on my computer. Google doesn't allow you to do that. Anyone know of any open source alternatives to Google Docs? I would be grateful if there were any.

Many thanks!

FengOffice has some overlap, though not as far as I can see, spreadsheets, and although they push their paid for product, are open source.

It turns out that Chrome does have an Offline Docs plugin. This would enable you to set up offline access to Google Drive on your computer. Here is the link for setting this up:

With that being said, OpenOffice is also a good option. It just depends on what you want to do.
