It is true that Open Office is a bit slower for some reason. I just open a
blank document whenever I boot up the computer and everything goes well.
I like OOo for many things. The problems I have are simply because of not
being familiar with the product.

Are you happy w/how fast it starts up. How about how fast you can open a

much RAM are you using?
I would like to be able to speed up OO. I really hate having to wait on
it to start, load, etc.
Make sure the OpenOffice QuickStarter is loaded in your Startup group, if
you are on Windows. It preloads OOo components.
You can also "cache" the apps by simply loading a document or
sprweadsheet, etc., at startup.
Lastly, get a faster computer, and/or add RAM to your PC, and/or tune your
VM. I have a 2GHz Sony laptop with 2G RAM, and OOo opens damn near
instantly (and I can post a video to document it).
The same tricks work for MSFT Office, too.
