This is NOT a lab environment, I'm simulating a real system crash..that's all.
Point is OOo saving mechanism NEEDS to be changed we got 2 solid reasons -
1) Its extremely unreliable.
2) No one wants to wait for a minute or 2 to save a 'space' that was made
towards the end of a document.
Its unreliability is worst than gedit...a simple text editor..........is this
what you expect from an office suite?
I mean this office suit has a tag "When saving with OOo, you CAN loose data,
which you will not if using MS office or even a simple text editor...with the
same accident"
Ok...this happening might be rare, but if it does happen, to guy to which it has
happened will lose lots of labour....I mean that file...which contained like 100
mb of text + formula + images etc.... will be reduced to 0 bytes...you realise
how much hate will that guy towards the office suite and the community?
And this is VERY probable when the file size increases and if the system/file
system speed reduces (which is again VERY probable in an net book with its
processor at the lowest power state).
I'm not asking you to chop your system to pieces, I'm just asking you to plug
the power off.......and the data's lost. I did not even do anything physical.
Actually there is NO office suit except this one which actually WIPES all
previous data in such a case..........to be explicit, this is the MOST
unreliable office suit at its current state.
Cause of this very saving mechanism, making an book in openoffice is
IMPOSSIBLE...the file size reaches 1 MB, saving the file frequently becomes a
pain, you actually have to think before pressing ctrl+s......which you don't
have to with MS office no matter what the file size is.
By closing the issue, you mean to say that OOo will destroy all your data in
case of a system crash/power failure...which will not damage any other file in
the same partition (i.e except that openoffice document)...or there even won't
be any loss of data in the other file. Its cause of Openoffice that you will
loose data on the partition...nothing else is to blame.
Reopening + changing priority to P2
