I read a review yesterday that made it sound like *THE* new FOSS office suite. Also said that latest release of OO was met by the sound of crickets. Based on that, and the mention that OO had been taken over by Oracle, (which I missed, because for the last month or so I've had my head up my.... ) I went to get it, saw that it had a PortableApps version, and got it from www.portableapps.com Tried it, and for a few seconds was impressed that my spreadsheet looked EXACTLY like OpenOffice, before I went "DUH!". Anyway, seems good, seems stable. I'll give it a week, and if no show-stoppers, I'll probably bid a fond farewell to Open Office. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
