true.
out of three available word processors
in sarge (oowriter, koffice, abiword) only oowriter reads and writes properly
MS Word's more advanced formattings - shadowed backgrounds, etc. As most
people are using MS, oowriter seems quite raisonable choice.

Hi,
why don't you just add xterm or
For sure will not
Since I "discovered" linux
for myself I can see it's used everywhere in professional applications
- LANs, ISP, hosting. I cannot imagine any company would switch to something
more expensive and less sure (new), untill linux works well.
Linux GUIs (KDE, Gnome) is something
new.
Hi,

Why not set a real website, with cheap
