[[Word of note (ok off the subject) those looking for a GREAT word processor, check out www.sdcorp.com for Word Perfect 7 by Corel.. now the thing is about talking about this is that Word Perfect works flawlessly under Linux 2.0.18+, and Corel has a office suite 98 with tons of nice exiting things in it that they are dieing to port to linux (IF big if) there is high enough demand for its ported Word Perfect 7... Yes I do have Applix and I know Star Office is free but they don't compare...(this is my opinion) Star Office 4.0 is finally out is is said to be much better than the old bloated versions. But if you got a fancy for Word Perfect go check out www.sdcorp.com. Prices for Word Perfect 7 if your a student is 59.00(US) and the standard versions is 147.00(US).. So well this is my opinon so its mine, and you
Hi Steven; My wife & I use WP 4.2 under DOS. While for me it's ok, no big deal, my wife loves it. I, at first, thought about upgrading to WP7/Linux but the price stopped me. Yes, I know that it's not much, but my entire computer bugget for the year is only 240 DM (ca. 150$). So it's out. Here in Germany alot of the Computer mags have CD with them. Some of them have Linux software on them. One of them is saying that they'll have Star Office on in one or two months. I hope so. The main thing I'm looking for now is a replacement for M$ Publisher. I need to be able to layout a bulletin and all I have is Publisher. If Star Office can handle layouts then I can delete all of M$ Windows. One question can Applix do layouts?
don't have to take it.]]
