I would check out Staroffice from Sun.  You'll need linux emulation
running.  I know there are other Wordprocessors out there, but as far as
spreadsheets, you probably want something MS compatible.  Databases is a
different story.  MySQL should be in the ports collection.  cd
/usr/ports/databases/MySQL, then type make while connected to the net.
When it's done, type make install.  Or, there may be a version on the
CDROM you can install with sysinstall.
