Have you tried it? Is it better than OOo, SO, KOffice or LaTeX?

I am pleased that there are people producing good commercial software (of course not in the sense of morally good, using commercial software is always a sin ;) ) for GNU/Linux, especially at this price.

Softmaker have a special this week for their Linux office suite,
consisting of word processor and spreadsheet. Both are 10 EUR (20 EUR
both linux + ms), download edition, and it's not that big. The CD and
including printed manuals is the same price, but adds 8 EUR shipping. As
shipping is per order, anyone interested should combine. At that
ridiculous price (less than NZ$25) one could just see it as an
evaluation cost, with optional free permanent use.
