I have been experimenting with OpenOffice lately ... mostly becuase I find myself increasingly more multi-platform and want things to be as normal as possible across Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows.
Overall I have been pleased with OpenOffice. I have been migrating to it from Word (Mac & Windows) for everyday tasks and so far all I really miss is integration with EndNote bibliography mangement software. It is a robust and mature or maturing product. At times, it lacks the polish of MS Office, but provides a good deal of functionality with very little re-training necessary. Being that it is free, I'd take the time to download and try it out. I have used AppleWorks some, but never could take it seriously (sorry!). -- Brandon in Durham <snip> -- MaX-list is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> MaX-list info: <http://lowendmac.com/linux/max.shtml> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/max-list%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
