Thanks all! > ======================= Almost a year ago I downloaded the Win version of SO 5.0, knowing I'd soon be trying linux. I now run 5.0 on my linux box and find it paticularly useful when dealing with others from the M$ worl using office. Student e-mail eassys to me as Word attachments. From my linux box, I open the essay in SO, make my comments in red, save as Word 97 doc, e-mail back as attachment. No problemo. I find PowerPoint easier to use than SO presentation program, but other than that, I find SO equally competent. Keep in mind it is a hog, so have plenty of RAM or it'll really drag (I use 96 meg).
