------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Mar 16 11:07:21 -0800 2005 ------- Hi, I typed my thesis of more than 90 pages with lots of graphs, tables, math equations. There is no single day passes without crashing when I want to save the document. I had the docuemnt cut to five files to speed up the process, but working with master document is as bad as large files. It crashes many time when need to save and update. Some times it crashes when updating the table of content. It remindes me with Windows 95 and how unstable it was. I tried migrate back to MS Office XP because OOO cannot match MS Word speed, but it is time-consuming to retype all the math in the document. OOO 1.4 and even 2.0beta does not export math into MS Word in a good manner. I really regret that I used OOO for such serious job. Some times it takes me long time to re- edit and fix my document after a crash. It takes a long time to open a large document and longer time to update a master document. I have a decent computer with Athlon 1900+ CPU, 256MB of DDR Memory and Windows XP running on it. The problem with OOO is that it becomes awkward when it comes to large technical documents. I think speed is crucial determinant of the future of StarOffice and its clone OOO if it has to compete with other Office suites especially MS Office. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
