If you just want to look at the files, select the file and press the space bar. You should be able to see the file now and you could take a screen shot.(Command, shift 3 or 4 if you want to select an area)

or
You could try gimp, it's free. It's more of a photoshop replacement. Not sure if it opens .ai files but you should be able to open .eps ones. Here is the link:- http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ . They do have a donation button if you love the program and want to send them a little something.

or
inkscape, never used it. Seems very much like illustrator. http://inkscape.org/

or
Adobe now do a monthly subscription service for their products if that helps.

Cheers

Tim

Illustrator available gratis all over the web if you're that way inclined - so no

If the .ai was saved using the default settings (create pdf compatible file or something like that) you can change the file extension to .PDF and open it with a pdf viewer.
