OpenOffice Substitutes

[Irena and Richard Jenkins]

Hello Everyone...

I have 'breezy-badger' RC1 running quite happily on this iMac.  It is even 
better after I extended the repositories to include the universes, and ran 
'install kde' ... to get some updates happening! 

 I have no complaints about the software that is provided ... but I wonder if 
adopting KOffice would be a better substitute for OpenOffice (as provided).  
My machine has plenty of RAM (256 Meg) but only a slow old G3 processor.  
OpenOffice bogs it down to a crawl!  I downloaded KOffice and for 
preparation/editing of documents I find it much more responsive. 

On another machine I have tried Abiword ... but I wonder what others think of 
the current version of KOffice??

Richard

PS  Thanks to the Kubuntu writers for providing a bang-up-to-date version of 
linux for the ppc which works with no probs from the outset!!!
