Years ago I used Ability Office - DOS version - which was amazing in its
capabilities. For instance it had live links between modules - updating
a spreadsheet automatically updated charts and any other links made, and
the whole suite sold for £25. A couple of years ago I realised that they

Hi Frank,
use startoffice6 beta instead of using Microsoft office 2000 application -
wine. If it's just office 2000 files, Staroffice works fine with all,
includeing ppt files.

If you got the boxed version of Mandrake 6.1, it's on one of the RPM CD's.
If not, then maybe try stardivision.com (?) or maybe sunmicrosystems. You

Yup! My cable company has done the upgrade. The TV looks great, and
that's why they promise the 512kbps connection. They sell me a NIC card
for about $150.00, including the install and setup, then $40.00 / month
for the access fee. I guess that's not too bad. The reason I'm holding

You got that right! Neither of those suites I mentioned is as large as

I like it. It does the job. It is big though, and the decision on
installing it depends on what your needs are. If you just want a word
processor, StarOffice is overkill, but if you need a complete office
suite, designed to compete with the one from Redmond, then this baby
is for you. It has every

Well well well, when I need to hire someone to open a can of worms, I know where to

As with all things, it depends on what you want to use it for.
