For simple Word documents I've received in email, it worked great. It starts up faster than SO 5.2, and it opens as a normal window instead of that annoying full-screen "desktop" that SO 5.2 used. I did have one document that didn't open properly; Jerry had sent me a Word document with a receipt form for our last Mt. Ida Installfest, about a year ago, and it wouldn't open properly in OpenOffice, AbiWord, CorelOffice, or ApplixWare. I didn't have SO installed at the time, so for all I know it probably wouldn't have opened in that either. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ 28611923 / AIM abreauj / JABBER jabr at jabber.org / YAHOO abreauj Email jabr at blu.org / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
