Unfortunately, since OO/LO 3.3 was released, Base at least is unusable
on screens with a resolution of 1024x576. Which in all honesty is a
shockingly glaring error, especially when taking into consideration the
popularity of netbooks/umpc's. We use them alot with work, especially
for those of us on call.

Now the natural progression from here, is, that if  OO/LO3.3 is useless
on a netbook/umpc, then it's also useless on other systems where Base
files are also going to be used on netbooks / umpc's.

That being the case, the only real alternative to OO/LO, is MS Office.

If using MS Office, then there is no other real option, other than to
use a MS based OS

If using MS Office, there is no requirement to use either Hsql or MySQL
to make the database portable, it makes sense to use MS Access.

What follows then, is that, should the database grow too large for MS
Access, the next logical step will be to go down the SQL Server route,
again, negating the need for MySQL, or even Oracle DB.

Putting OO 3.3 out with such  restriction, must be some of the best new
Microsoft has had in an age. Looks like after 10 years, my use of OO/LO
may well be coming to an end, it may also be the case that my
association with linux may also have to start coming to an end

Cheers
