I have another criteria which you may or may not find relevant: is it cross-platform. This is a critical issue to me, because i need to be able to recommend the tool to the end users i support, and most of them still use Windows or Mac. Therefore, if there is a cross-platform solution that works (i.e. OpenOffice.org), i recommend it. I do the same with browsers and email (Mozilla/Firefox/Thunderbird). -- Paul <http://paulgear.webhop.net> -- Did you know?
